Hosted by the Leelanau Historical Society

Join Dr. Thomas Henthorn to explore preservation issues in Michigan cemeteries. We'll delve into monuments and markers, and how caring for each can vary based on material, age, environment, and other factors.

Dr. Thomas Henthorn is the Wyatt Endowed Professor of Public History and director of the Preservation Studies Minor at the University of Michigan Flint. In addition to conducting research and teaching projects at Michigan cemeteries, Dr. Henthorn sits on the board of Flint's two oldest cemeteries. He was recently recognized for his cemetery preservation projects with the Michigan Historic Preservation Network "Citizen's Award."
