The Amos Herr House Foundation and Historical Society will host a lecture by Jack Brubaker on Thursday, Oct. 20, at 7 p.m. The lecture will be held in the Gamber Auditorium in the Viva Welcome Center of Woodcrest Villa, 2001 Harrisburg Pike, Lancaster.

Brubaker will discuss "Three Generations of the Quaker Gibbons Family's Participation in the Underground Railroad." He will talk about the family members' transporting slaves to freedom from their farm along Mill Creek in Upper Leacock Township. The Gibbons family married into the Brubaker family, and the Gibbons family documents and traditions will be the basis of Brubaker's talk.

Brubaker will offer copies of his latest books for purchase. For more information, call 717-898-8822.
