SUMMARY:Unsolved Murders in Washington County\, a program by author Dr. Hollis Palmer
DESCRIPTION:The Washington County Historical Society and the Greenwich-Easton Historical Association will co-host “Unsolved Murders in Washington County”\, a program by author\, Dr. Hollis Palmer on Tuesday\, June 7 at 7 p.m. in the Community Room at the Greenwich Free Library\, Main Street in Greenwich\, N.Y.\nIn the days before DNA\, criminal profiling and computerized records\, many crimes went unsolved. Washington County was no exception to this phenomenon. Join us for an evening of the stories of Victorian Era crimes that occurred in Washington County (or at least to county residents).\nPresented by author and Victorian historian\, Hollis Palmer\, PhD.\, hear about such tales as the barber who while he was awaiting trial for murder\, made the model church on display in the Warren County Museum\, the murder of Maggie Horrigan near McDonald’s in Greenwich\, and the story of a woman who had trouble telling right from left. If time permits\, and we are sure it will not\, Dr. Palmer will also tell the story of the murder of the wife of the wealthiest men in Schuylerville (Yes\, the story does spill over into Greenwich!)\nDr. Palmer has written six true crime books on incidents in the Victorian Era. His books will be on sale at a discount price of $7.00 (which includes tax) or 3 for $15.00.\nThere is no charge for the program and the public is invited to attend. Donations are always gladly accepted. Please join us for this informative program about history that happened in our own back yards!
