Learn about the history of Warren Township through the Hofheimer family by watching a pre-recorded lecture.
The Warren Township branch will be showing a recording of “Hofheimer: The Family and its Legacy”, a lecture given by Alan A. Siegel. This lecture originally took place on Tuesday, April 23, 2024.
Although no member has lived in Warren for nearly seven decades, the influence of Nathan Hofheimer and his family on the township has been profound. Once a sleepy crossroads village, Warrenville has become the vital center of a modern American suburb, thanks in large measure to the decision made over a century ago by a wealthy family to make their summer home in Washington Valley. This illustrated talk tells the fascinating story of that family, their estate, and its legacy.
