“Mary Todd Lincoln” at Monmouth County Historical Association’s Annual Meeting

The Monmouth County Historical Association will hold its 113th Annual Meeting on Jan. 24 at the Thompson Park Visitors Center, 805 Newman Springs Road in Lincroft.

A brief business meeting will begin at 6 p.m., to be followed by a program, “An Evening with Mrs. Lincoln,” at 7 p.m.  The public is welcome to attend and admission is free. 

Mrs. Lincoln will be portrayed by Judi Cox, who has been interpreting the life of Mary Todd Lincoln for over five years at museums, libraries, schools and parades throughout the state. She will be accompanied by Paul Serge, who portrays Elmer Ellsworth Hager, Mrs. Lincoln’s bodyguard. Mr. Serge will play authentic Civil War music on classical guitar as background to Ms. Cox’s performance.

Following the program, Mrs. Lincoln will make herself available for questions. Refreshments will be served at that time. Please call 732-462-1466 for further information or to let us know that you wish to attend.
