COMING EVENTS
John Burke of John Burke’s Living History will present “Oliver Wolcott - Signer of the Declaration of Independence” on Wednesday, July 23, 7:00 PM at Richfield Fellowship Hall. Originally from Connecticut and a Yale-educated lawyer, Wolcott was also a soldier in the French and Indian War, a major general of the Connecticut militia, and a Founding Father who signed both the Declaration of Independence and the Articles of Confederation. Find out the true story of the Declaration of Independence and discover some interesting anecdotes about some of the other Founding Fathers.
On Tuesday, August 26, 7:00 PM at Richfield Fellowship Hall, Carl Quatraro will present "The Toledo War" - where a border dispute between Ohio and the Michigan territory nearly erupted into an armed conflict in 1835 when both claimed ownership of the Toledo area. Is this the root of the Ohio-Michigan rivalry?
Discover the value of a favorite flea market find or treasured family heirloom at the Richfield Historical Society’s “Antiques Detective” (our version of an antiques roadshow) on Saturday, September 13, at Richfield Fellowship Hall (3903 Broadview Road). From 11:00 AM-1:00 PM, a local professional with over 37 years of experience collecting and dealing in antiques will evaluate artifacts for $5 each (limit of three items per person). Registration is required. Contact Karen at [email protected] or 330-659-4750 for details.
