Posted

OGDENSBURG -- Seven scholars will talk at a Fort La Présentation Association War of 1812 symposium at the Freight House Restaurant April 29 and 30.

The historians, academics and published authors from New York and Ontario headlining the symposium will provide insights into the War of 1812 as the conflict impacted the border region from Lake Ontario to Lake Champlain.

Association President Barbara O’Keefe said, “From the traditional music at the Friday evening meet-and-greet through the Saturday seminars and after-dinner speaker, all the presenters are experts in their own right.”

Information on the War of 1812 Symposium and how to register is on the Fort La Présentation Association’s web page, www.fort1749.org

The symposium has received a grant of $2,900 from the New York Council for the Humanities.
