Brooks featured at ‘MoC Talks’

Timothy Brooks

EAST LIVERPOOL — Attorney Timothy Brooks, president of the East Liverpool Historical Society, will be guest speaker at noon July 13 at the Museum of Ceramics as part of the “MoC Talks” lecture series.

Brooks’ talk is titled “The Last Stand: Jacob Shenkel’s Gettysburg Diary.”

A chance yard sale find of old photographs piqued Brookes’ interest in Shenkel, an East Liverpool potter. A later acquisition of Jacob’s Gettysburg diary reveled significant information that altered the known history of that battle.

“MoC Talks” are held the second Friday of each month and are free and open to the public.

The Museum is located at 400 East Fifth St., East Liverpool. For more information, visit the Museum’s web site (http://themuseumofceramics.com) or call 330-386-6001.
