Ruthmere is excited to present this program as part of Elkhart County's commemoration of the 250th Anniversary of the United States! #INElkhartCo250Family heirlooms are an important part of any family's history as well as an invaluable source of information. Caring for them can be a challenge for any family historian. Learn simple, effective techniques for preserving and handling family heirlooms, documents, and photographs while still keeping them accessible for research and display. Tamera Hemmerlein, Director of Local History Services, Indiana Historical Society, will present a Gallery Talk entitled "Preserving Your Family History: Caring for Family Heirlooms," on Friday, May 8 at 11 am at the Beardsley Discovery Center.
