CANCELLED Eight Brave Civil War Soldiers: Past Meets the Present


April 14, 2020

THIS EVENT HAS BEEN RESCHEDULED FOR OCTOBER 13, 2020 !

Join Toni Stevens-Oliver, Thornell Road elementary school teacher, and Vicki Masters Profitt, author, historian, and Director of the Fairport Historical Museum, as they share insights gleaned from primary source documents used to create an interactive, augmented reality picture book in tandem with a mobile app. The project details the experiences of Civil War soldiers buried in a local cemetery—researched and written by twenty fourth grade students.

New York State Archivist Tom Ruller will describe Civil War-related materials available to everyone held at the Archives as well as those online.

In collaboration with the New York Archive Partnership Trust and the New York Council for History Education
