Death and Mourning: 18th c. Funeral Practices
Tuesday, June 17, 2025 06:30 PM - 07:30 PM
Johnson Hall State Historic Site
In early America, death was a frequent part of colonial life. Wade's classic presentation is always a popular public program at Johnson Hall where he is the state historic site manager. As we observe the Revolutionary War anniversary, this program focuses on an aspect not often explored. Wade takes us through the evolution of the American funeral and how funeral practices in the United States evolved. Not for the faint of heart!
