Edwards Trace: The Trail to Illinois'...
Description
Join us for a journey along one of our state's first routes which connected Southern and Central Illinois. Traveled by Native Americans, soldiers, priests, trappers, and settlers. It was largely forgotten until recent scholarship rediscovered its importance. Guest speaker Anna Sielaff is a Central Illinois native and University of Illinois graduate student.
