Archer Lecture: Lafayette in Harford County Reprised

November 9, 2024 @ 2:00 pm 3:00 pm

In 1931, Alexis Shriver wrote a book entitled Lafayette in Harford County that recounted the Marquis de Lafayette’s travels through Harford County Maryland during the Revolution and his stop in Havre de Grace on his Farewell Tour. Today, local historical researchers dispute some of Shriver’s claims. Learn more about these visits and explore the facts and the myths associated with Lafayette. Researchers Amy Rosencrans and Ken Sterner will share what they have learned in researching Lafayette in Harford County.
