Ghosts of Galesburg: An Annual Journey Through Time

Author:

Abstract

Galesburg, Illinois, is a city that loves its history. From its time as a railroad hub to its many theaters and performance venues, the city has a rich history and residents who love to reminisce about yesteryear. As a public library, we try to cater to that love by providing programming to encourage reflection and celebration of the community, including historical presentations, genealogy lock-ins, and walking tours. One of our most successful programs every year is Ghosts of Galesburg, a tour showcasing some of the most famous figures in the city’s past at iconic locations.
