Description

Directly influenced by Queen Victoria’s deep mourning of her husband in 1861, Americans emulated the world’s greatest trendsetter for their own mourning practices. The March installment of our Sundays at 3:00 lecture series welcomes Montgomery County Historian Carolyn Ferrell to explore these practices and traditions that continued until World War I, with artifacts from the period on display.
