SUMMARY:The 1849 Cholera Outbreak in Jefferson City
DESCRIPTION:FRIENDS OF THE MISSOURI STATE ARCHIVES present virtually on Facebook Live! \nIn 1849\, a steamship named after President James Monroe left St. Louis for Council Bluffs\, Iowa. On board along with 50-plus crewmembers and miscellaneous passengers were 135 Latter-day Saints from Philadelphia\, joined in St. Louis by a group of 35 California-bound prospectors from Jeffersonville\, Indiana. Shortly after departure\, on what was supposed to be a routine trip\, cholera broke out among the travelers. Days later\, 14-year-old James McHenry discovered the steamship after a skeleton crew landed it at Jefferson City. Observing the dead and dying victims along the riverbank\, several local churches opened their doors to serve as hospitals for the afflicted. Though the exact number of deaths resulting from the outbreak is unknown\, with different sources recording quite different figures\, it had far-reaching effects. Join us for a presentation on Facebook Live from Gary Elliott\, author of The 1849 Cholera Outbreak in Jefferson City\, as he details this tragic\, yet historic event.

SUMMARY:Zoom Meeting - The Orphan Trains
DESCRIPTION:The Orphan Trains \nby Tina Sansone of the Tennessee Genealogical Society\nFebruary 22 VIRTUAL 6:30 pm\n“From 1850 to the 20th century\, thousands of children were transferred from the overcrowded orphanages and homes in the large cities in the northeastern part of the United States\, to live with families on farms throughout the middle West. Almost every state took in an orphan over the years. The name Orphan Train originates with the railroad trains that transported the children to their new homes. Learn more about these often overlooked kids. If you hit a brick wall\, your ancestor just might be part of the Orphan Train kids.” \nTina is a board member of the Tennessee Genealogical Society\, editor of their quarterly “Ansearchin’ News” & the librarian for the Germantown Regional History & Genealogy Center.
