Historical Society of Frankford November Meeting and Lecture

Philadelphia author Joe Lex will speak about his newly published book All Bones Considered: 52 Laurel Women at the HSF library/museum. Not all “hidden Figures” are mathematicians or engineers. Some are political figures. Others chose medicine, while still others went into the arts. This book tells the amazing stories of more than 50 women whose final resting place is two cemeteries in Philadelphia, gathered by Dr. Joe Lex, who volunteers as a docent at the Laurel Hill cemeteries. Copies of the book will be available for purchase. This event is free and open to the public. Light refreshments will be served. The lecture will also livestream in the Historical Society’s Facebook page.215
