Come Join Us This Fall!

FDR’s mother, Sara Delano Roosevelt, will solve the mystery behind her relationship with Eleanor. See Nathaniel Pendleton and hear how he missed signing the Declaration of Independence. Two special "guests" will tell us about life in wealthy households in the late 1800s and the 1960s. Hear from New York’s third governor and General in the War of 1812, Morgan Lewis, and see his bathtub gravemarker.
