Allen County Museum hosts Bluffton history book program
Fred Steiner, author of “The Bluffton We Never Knew,” will talk about the book during a program at 2 p.m., Sunday, April 29, at the Allen County Museum, 620 Market St., Lima.
The book includes nearly 170 photos of Bluffton covering its first half-century as a village, from 1861 to 1911. Steiner will show several photos from the book and will point out things in the photos not generally seen by viewers.
The book includes several rare photographs from the museum’s own collection. Signed copies of the book will be available following the presentation.
