Neenah's Immigration Stories - William Owen and the Welsh of Wisconsin

  • Neenah Public Library 240 E Wisconsin Ave Neenah, WI, 54956 United States (map)

 Join us for another program in our Immigration Stories of Neenah when we present “William Owen and the Welsh of Wisconsin.” Owen arrived in the U.S. in 1887 and made Neenah his home. One of his descendants became a prominent Neenah businessman, and the story is featured in our current “Tracing Our Paths” exhibit. The presentation will include his story as well as the Welsh of Winnebago County.

The program will be held at the Neenah Public Library and we will be following the library’s policy regarding masking, as applicable.
