“On The Road Again!”
Presenter: The Bishop Hill Heritage
Association Acting Troupe is on the move again! Those 1850 Swedish Colonists, after being on the ocean in a tall ship, then Erie Canal boats, are walking from Chicago to their new home in communal Bishop Hill, Illinois. Many experiences take place along the way with these Swedes that have not mastered the English language! What will their jobs be in the newly settled village? Will cholera find their trail? Has Brita weakened and allowed Sven to join her? Will Anna, at last, find that sought-after husband?
