Next Monthly Meeting

Please join us for our hybrid monthly meeting in April 2025.

Widowhood in French St. Louis

Featuring Sharon Person, author and instructor

Saturday, 12 April 2025, 10:00 a.m. (Central)

This meeting will be hybrid: in-person at the Clark Family Branch, St. Louis County Library, 1640 South Lindbergh Boulevard, St. Louis, MO 63131, and via Zoom.

(A link to a Google map with directions to the library is here.)

Early St. Louis residents were bound by French law, and regulation of inheritance and property especially affected widowed women. The story of two widows, one of whom remarried and one who did not, will be our focus for this meeting, using French and Spanish archival manuscripts, the 1776 St. Louis census, and religious records.
