UPDATE: Genealogical Society Book Launch postponed to Saturday, Dec. 7

HOUGHTON -- Because of the snowstorm and school closings today, Dec. 5, the Carnegie Museum announces a postponement of the Houghton-Keweenaw County Genealogical Society (HKCGS) book launch and reception for their commemorative book titled Families Left Behind, originally scheduled for today, Thursday, Dec. 5. Instead, the event will be held from NOON to 4 P.M. on SATURDAY, DEC. 7, at the museum.

The book is the result of the contribution by many HKCGS members of untold hours spent researching and writing "memorials" of the families of the people who died at the Italian Hall tragedy on 24 December 1913.
