Born and bred in rural Gilmanton, New Hampshire, H.H. Holmes became one of the 19th-century’s most ruthless killers. He was a handsome charmer who skillfully made a place for himself among polite society while hiding an ugly secret of fraud, theft, and ultimately murder in a crime spree that ranged from Texas to Toronto. New Hampshire native and local author Avree Kelly Clark unmasks H.H. Holmes in this talk about his life, which she explored for her most recent book, a novel that follows the story of the investigations into Holmes and his sensational trial. Copies of Clark’s book will be available for sale and signing at the event. Admission is free for Society members, $10 for nonmembers. No registration required.

Genealogy is everywhere these days, but scholars are just beginning to delve into when and how Americans came to be fascinated by the study of families and the connections that link us all. While we may think of 18th-century Americans as largely the subject of genealogy research, they were active participants in what was a foundational interest and practice in their own time. Join Karin Wulf of Brown University as she discusses her ground-breaking research in the history of genealogy from her book, Lineage: Genealogy and the Power of Connection in Early America. This program, conducted via Zoom, is free for everyone. Registration is required through the Programs &amp; Events Calendar on the New Hampshire Historical Society’s website at nhhistory.org.

The legend of Revolutionary General John Stark loomed large over the generations that followed him, even decades after his death. In this talk, author Jane D. Cairns introduces her new novel, Exalted Objects, and the generation of Starks who inspired it. The novel traces the family’s legacy and the world they inhabited: a New Hampshire transformed by railroads and industrial development and profoundly shaped by the experience of the Civil War. Copies of Cairns’s book will be available for sale and signing at the event. Admission is free for Society members, $10 for nonmembers. No registration required.

The stories we hear from our families tell us who we are and how we should view the world. What tales shaped New England identities in the 17th and 18th centuries? In this presentation, historian Jo Radner juxtaposes Native American oral traditions and stories told by her own New England ancestors to reveal a complex colonial "middle ground.” This lecture is offered through the Humanities to Go program of New Hampshire Humanities, and admission is free.

Harry “Bucky” Lew had integrated both college and pro basketball by 1903, and he didn't stop there. In a career that spanned 25 years and took him all over New England, Lew integrated every conceivable role in the game. Concord hosted Lew many times. It wasn't the case everywhere, but he was always welcome in the city. And that kind of welcome prompted the Dodgers to place their first integrated farm team in the United States in New Hampshire, leading to the full integration of all major league sports. Sports writer Chris Boucher shares the tale. This program, conducted via Zoom, is free for everyone. Registration is required through the Programs &amp; Events Calendar on the New Hampshire Historical Society’s website at nhhistory.org.
