Distinguished Professor of History Thomas Carneal will present a free program on one of Maryville’s early leaders, Nat Sisson, and his many accomplishments. Civil War veteran Nathaniel Sisson came to Maryville in 1866. A trained surveyor and engineer, he was a driving force in helping Maryville to move forward. He was active in state and national politics and was instrumental in Maryville’s bid as a location for the Fifth District Normal School (now Northwest Missouri State University). Refreshments, suggestive of the late 1800s, will be served. Museum tours will be available, including the recently created "Nat Sisson" room.
