Brown Bag Lunch and Lecture event at the M.C. Museum Friday

Monday, June 9, 2025 at 11:00 PM

The Marshall County Historical Society is sponsoring a Brown Bag Lunch & Lecture Event this Friday from noon to 1 p.m. Culver historians Jeff Kenney and The Very Rev. Dr. John Houghton will present a fascinating look at the “Little Known Ladies of Culver.”

Whether it's an international aeronautics pioneer, an Alabama librarian who took a nationally-recognized stand against racism, a Potawatomi woman who heavily influenced equal rights for women and men in her tribe, an infamous serial killer or mystery women who may have created new lives with secrets left behind, chances are you've never heard of at least some of these Culver-area women who led unusual lives.

Fr. Houghton, president of the Culver Historical Society, is a sixth-generation Culver native and author of a plethora of articles and books. He’s a graduate of Culver Military Academy with advanced degrees from Harvard, IU, Yale, and Notre Dame and is often seen around Culver with his dog, Beda.

Like Houghton, Kenney is a descendant of Culver-area pioneers and a frequent speaker and writer on local history topics. He serves as Museum and Archives Manager for Culver Academies.

The Brown Bag event will be held at the Marshall County Historical Society & Museum, 123 N. Michigan St. in Plymouth, this Friday at noon. Pack a lunch and learn with us!
