SUMMARY:History Revealed: The Leavenworth Expedition
DESCRIPTION:Ramsey County Historical Society Presents\nGary Brueggemann: The Long Legacy of the Leavenworth Expedition (1819-20)\nHistory Revealed Series\nJune 27\, 2019\nThursday\, 7:00 pm\nRamsey County Roseville Library\nFree and open to all. No reservations needed. \nJoin RCHS for History Revealed\, our program series featuring presentations and tours from the best of local historians\, authors and archaeologists\, with a wide range of topics drawn from the heritage and traditions of Ramsey County. \nTwo hundred years ago the largest expedition to enter present-day Minnesota launched the development of an American military establishment near the meeting of the Mississippi and Minnesota rivers that proved to be a great turning point in Minnesota history. Never before in history had so many non-natives in one group traveled so far up the Mississippi – more than 530 miles north of St. Louis and over 200 miles upriver from Prairie du Chien\, the northernmost settlement on the Mississippi in 1819. And never before had so many people from so many places made such a large “Cantonment” in that part of the wilderness. \nIncluded among the 128 members of this historic expedition were the first non-Indigenous women and children to enter present-day Minnesota\, and the former New York lawyer and politician and war hero who led them\, – the “polished gentleman” destined for fame but also misery – Commander Lieutenant Colonel Henry Leavenworth. The group’s adventurous story\, which included the tragic deaths of dozens of soldiers and extraordinary hardships for everyone\, is a significant chapter in Minnesota history; yet it is one of the lesser known ones remembered today – and when it is remembered its legacy is largely underappreciated and the details of the story greatly condensed. \nMinnesota historian and author Gary Brueggemann  has been extensively researching this interesting and important story and will share what he has uncovered in a special pictorial presentation. \nGary Brueggemann is a lifetime resident of St. Paul’s West 7th neighborhood\, and he credits his love of history to his father\, who inspired his son with tales about his own childhood growing up along the river below the Randolph Ave. bluff. Gary received undergraduate and graduate degrees from University Of Wisconsin – River Falls. Now retired\, in 1978 Gary developed the first-ever college accredited course on St. Paul history for Inver Hills Community College\, where he served as a history professor. \nPhoto of Colonel Henry Leavenworth\, Wikimedia Commons\, in the public domain.

SUMMARY:History Revealed: Downtown St. Paul
DESCRIPTION:Ramsey County Historical Society Presents\nHistory Revealed: A Toast to History at Waldmann Brewery & Wurstery\n\n\n\nIrik Nathanson: Downtown St. Paul\nThursday\, April 11\, 2019\n7:45 pm (note new time)\nFree and open to all. \nJoin RCHS for History Revealed\, our program series featuring presentations and tours from the best of local historians\, authors and archaeologists\, with a wide range of topics drawn from the heritage and traditions of Ramsey County. \n\nMinnesota’s capital city was given a lofty identity when young Catholic priest Lucien Gaultier built a modest log chapel in a wilderness clearing and named it for his patron saint. St. Paul’s modern downtown would later take shape at this very site. In the mid-19th century\, St. Paul’s strategic location at the head of navigation on the Mississippi River was naturally suited as a way station for goods and a hub for settlers pouring into the Upper Midwest. While St. Paul had to relinquish its ranking as Minnesota’s largest city to its twin\, Minneapolis\, the city remains at the center of state politics as Minnesota’s state capital. Following World War II\, a suburban boom weakened the business district\, and downtown St. Paul fell into decline. Over the last 40 years\, however\, St. Paul’s downtown has been reinvented as a major sports\, entertainment\, and cultural center. \nIric Nathanson tells the story of this resilient urban district\, stretching over two centuries\, using images from local archives like the Minnesota Historical Society and the Hennepin County Public Library Special Collections. Nathanson’s most recent work includes The Minneapolis Riverfront and Downtown Minneapolis\, both in the Image of America series. \n\nRegistration is needed to attend presentations. Space is limited\, first-come\, first served.\nPresentation is free.\nRegistration requested. Registration form\nOr call 651-222-0701 or email membership@rchs.com. \nIt’s RCHS Day at Waldmann Brewery & Wurstery!\nOn the second Thursday of each month\, 10% of all sales to RCHS members and their guests will be donated to the Ramsey County Historical Society! \nRCHS members and supporters are encouraged to come and enjoy a lunch/dinner/drink at Waldmann throughout the day\, or time your dinner so that you can stay for the presentation immediately after. So come on in and raise a toast to history and support RCHS! \nMention that you are a member\, supporter or friend of RCHS to your server\, and they will make sure that your tab is counted toward Waldmann’s support. \n \n2019 History Revealed Programs\nFor 2019 History Revealed programs\, see https://www.rchs.com/news/history-revealed-2019/ New programs are being added.

Free and open to all. \nJoin RCHS for History Revealed\, our program series featuring presentations and tours from the best of local historians\, authors and archaeologists\, with a wide range of topics drawn from the heritage and traditions of Ramsey County. \nAs part of his “Tracing TR’s 1903 Train Trip Tour\,” author James Blase will be presenting the history of Teddy Roosevelt’s train trip throughout the country in the spring of 1903\, one that culminated in a stop at the Grand Canyon. Blase’s new book\, Keep it for Your Children: Theodore Roosevelt’s 1903 Western Trip\, creates a first-person journal of a 66-day western train trip the President made during his first term in office\, in 1903 – a year after the Landmark Center first opened its doors.

No reservations needed. \nJoin RCHS for History Revealed\, our program series featuring presentations and tours from the best of local historians\, authors and archaeologists\, with a wide range of topics drawn from the heritage and traditions of Ramsey County. \nAuthor Greg Gaut will present his new book\, Reinventing the People’s Library\, which traces the history of the Arlington Hills Library\, one of three Carnegie Libraries in Saint Paul\, and its reinvention as the East Side Freedom Library.

DESCRIPTION:Ramsey County Historical Society Presents\nChristine Podas-Larson\, The Floating Bethel\nHistory Revealed Series\nJuly 25\, 2019\nThursday\, 7:00 pm\nRamsey County Roseville Library\nFree and open to all. No reservations needed. \nJoin RCHS for History Revealed\, our program series featuring presentations and tours from the best of local historians\, authors and archaeologists\, with a wide range of topics drawn from the heritage and traditions of Ramsey County. \nChristine Podas-Larson\, author of the recent article in Ramsey County History magazine\, “Eliza Edgerton Newport and St. Paul’s Floating Bethel\, 1891-1903” will talk about the history of Saint Paul’s “Floating Bethel\,” a refuge for the working poor that was docked off Sibley Street on the Mississippi. Community leader and St. Paul resident Eliza Newport was well-educated and well-connected\, and she led many charitable organizations and community efforts at the end of the 19th century. Drawn to the work of the Bethel Association\, and in conjunction with other community leaders\, Eliza developed places where the poor and transient of the city could meet\, get food\, basic needs\, and have a safe place to stay. This culminated in the Floating Bethel\, a riverboat hotel & bathhouse on the Mississippi River that served the “floating class\,” river and railroad workers and their families. Over thirteen years it provided educational\, vocational\, and religious instruction for the guests. On July 5\, 1893 the Floating Bethel had a devastating fire. The legacy of the Floating Bethel lives on today through the Bethel Hotel\, a transitional housing program for men run by Union Gospel Mission Twin Cities. \nChristine Podas-Larson will present the history of the Floating Bethel\, and the work and life of her great-grandmother\, Eliza Newport in this fascinating presentation on the early years of Saint Paul. \n\nChristine Podas-Larson is the founder of Public Art Saint Paul\, where she was the organization’s Executive Director for many years. She is also the great-granddaughter of Eliza Edgerton Newport. \n2019 History Revealed Programs\n\nSee the History Revealed 2019 information page for updates and a list of programs.\nOr check our Calendar for these and other programs at the Gibbs Farm\, and more!
