A Visit With Mary Todd Lincoln

 

Everyone is invited to enjoy a sparkling evening experiencing Jessica Michna's portrayal of Mary Todd Lincoln. This special event takes place Tuesday, September 21, at 7:00p.m., at the Old Courthouse Museum.

 

Mary Todd Lincoln was one of the most enigmatic women to reside in the White House. Daughter of a Lexington Kentucky banker, Mary was an outspoken and vivacious young woman. She was courted by Stephen Douglas but chose to Marry Abraham Lincoln. Her years in the White House were shadowed by the tragedy of personal loss and the horrors of the Civil War.

 

Ms. Michna's portrayal brings this interesting character from history to life. You will laugh at her anecdotes of being married to one of the most famous presidents in the United States and cry at the losses she endured.

 

This very special evening is $3 per person. Washington County Historical Society members are free. For more information, please call Jessica Couch at the Washington County Historical Society at 262-335-4678.
