The Making of a Mosaic: European Migrant Journeys during the Age of Steam: 3 Part Series

Tuesdays, 2/7, 14, & 21, 2023, 2:30-3:30pm, Stockton at Manahawkin, 712 E Bay Ave | The Allen County Public Library Genealogy Center and the Northeast Indiana Jewish Genealogy Society are excited to welcome Dr. Nicholas J. Evans, a Senior Lecturer in diaspora history at the University of Hull, for a series of free virtual programs. Dr. Evans, a migrant historian, will explore questions such as ‘why did so many Europeans leave?’ ‘What was the journey really like?’ Why when an ancestor arrived at Ellis Island did they settle in the mid-west?’ He will illustrate how one can piece together the gathering of ancestors from their village/town of birth to the moment they commenced their journey west.
