250th Celebration Series - Bass Reeves and Other Black Deputies

It’s not every year that the United States of America turns 250 years old!  The Genealogy Department invites you to join us each month in 2026 for a special event celebrating the 250th Anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Join us this month as Dave Kennedy, curator of the United States Marshals Museum, will be at the library to share his knowledge on black deputies and marshals, including the notable Bass Reeves.
