Karen Emerson: Keeping History Alive at the Historical Society of Kent County

October 22, 2014 by James Dissette

Share

The Spy recently caught up with Karen Emerson, the new executive director at the Historical Society of Kent County.

Emerson discusses the upcoming Halloween Ghost Walk (Friday the 24th) sponsored by the Society, how the move from the Geddes-Piper House to the Bordley Building on High Street has included the transfer of the organization’s library, the possibility of having to sell the Geddes-Piper House, success of recent fund raising efforts, and an appeal for volunteers, and her hopes for the future.

She also hopes to enhance the Society’s African American, women and Hispanic history sections, remarking that much local history will be lost unless a continued effort is made by volunteers and researchers.
