The Name Was Changed to Protect the Innocent: How Maidenhead Became Lawrence in 1816, MCLS
How did we get “Maidenhead” to begin with? Why, after 125 years as Maidenhead, was changing the name so urgent? Who supported the change – and who was against it? Why Lawrence? And how did it all come down? Presented by Dennis P. Waters, Mercer County Library commissioner and former Lawrence Township historian. Register to hopeprogs@mcl.org for link to program.
