Ralph Russell will present the history of Georgetown’s Russell and Williams families from the 17th century onward.
Interviewed by Don Guerrant, Mr. Russell will relate stories of his ancestors’ encounters with Comanches on the Chisholm Trail; a horde of Spanish gold (that’s still unrecovered); the 20,000-year-old Gault Archeological Site; J. Frank Dobie; city Father Emzy Taylor; the KKK Trials 100 years ago; and much more. You will laugh, cry, and learn local history in an entertaining way.
