Dutchess County's First Germans: A Rev250 Story

Who were the first German immigrants to Dutchess? How did European wars bring them to Dutchess seventy years before the Revolution?

About this Event

This installment of our ongoing Real Time Revolution series explores the German side to Dutchess County's Revolutionary Story. Who were the first Germans to settle in Dutchess? What brought them here? How did they impact the development of the county in the decades before the Revolutionary War? Dutchess County Historian Will Tatum will address these and other questions in this 45 minute long presentation.

Attendance at this event includes a free one night entry to Germania of Poughkeepsie. Germania will be offering dinner as a separately-billed element of this event: we'll add the reservation link for dinner when we have it.
