Event Details
Did you know 12,500 orphans from New York City and the Boston area were placed in Michigan from 1854 to 1927? Al and David Eicher, research historians and television producers, spent a year and a half in research and searching for photos of the Orphan Train Riders in Michigan. The lecture and visual presentation provides in depth detail about this event in Michigan’s history.
