While most San Marino residents are familiar with the historic
names of Patton and Huntington, there were other families living in the area
before San Marino became a chartered city. Come hear stories of some of those lesser
known individuals who made up the 500 citizens of San Marino: Edward J.C.
Kewen, George Stoneman, James deBarth Shorb to name a few. See photographs from the era, and perhaps
learn a little bit more about this centenarian city.
This program will feature JENNIFER ALLAN GOLDMAN, the
Institutional Archivist and a Curator of Manuscripts at the Huntington Library
in San Marino, California. She is responsible for the Huntington Institutional
Archives, as well as all manuscript collections related to Henry Huntington, his
family and his business interests. In addition, Jennifer oversees collections
in transportation, modern Southern California corporations, and 20th century
American history.
This program is free and open to the
public. It will take place in the
Library’s Barth Community Room. Seating
is limited and attendance to these monthly programs has been to capacity so please
arrive early.
