| I will be giving a talk at the Chicago Architecture Foundation on Wednesday, September 30, at 12:15. CAF is located at 224 S. Michigan Ave. For more information, phone 312-922-3432, or visit their Web site. ********************* Two of the historical marker plaques were stolen from Lincoln Park during the week of April 11 - 18. If anyone has any information, please contact me: pbannos@northwestern.edu  See images of the historical markers here. Listen to and download their accompanying podcasts here. ********************* On April 22, I will be giving a free public lecture at the Evergreen Park Library. Go here to see the program brochure. On November 20, 2008, I gave a free public lecture at DePaul University for their Lincoln Park Community Research Initiative Fall Program. Go here to see the program brochure. ********************* I am delighted by the personal responses I am receiving from visitors to the on-site and web-based portions of this project. It is surprising and gratifying to hear from descendants of individuals who are mentioned on this website. In particular, I am pleased that I was able to close gaps in the family histories of John Ure and Jacob Milliman. Members from both families unexpectedly found their notable ancestor here. I would like to thank photography collector John Graf for sending me this vintage image of the Frances M. Pearce sepulchral monument that once stood in the City Cemetery. See more about this memorial here.  |
