FALL MEETING

Please join us on Sunday, October 20, 2024 at Goochland Baptist Church for our fall meeting. Our speaker will be Christian Di Spigna, a well-known writer based in New York and Virginia. A volunteer at Colonial Williamsburg, Di Spigna is recognized as an expert on the history of the American Revolutionary era, a dedicated researcher of early American history, and a detailed storyteller, capable of bringing his topics to life in a memorable way. His presentation will introduce us to Revolutionary War patriot Dr. Joseph Warren. His book Founding Martyr: The Life and Death of Dr. Joseph Warren, the American Revolution’s Lost Hero is an illuminating biography of the patriot physician and Major General who fomented rebellion and died heroically at the battle of Bunker Hill in 1775. Until Di Spigna’s book, little was known about this influential Boston architect of the rebellion. With the 250th anniversary of the American Revolution, Christian Di Spigna is much in demand. The GCHS is pleased to have him present at our fall meeting.

The program begins at 3:00 pm, with refreshments following. The church is located at 2454 Manakin Road, Manakin-Sabot, 23103.
