Next Monthly Meeting

 

Saturday, 8 November 2025 (10:00 a.m., Central time)

 

The Cholera Epidemic in St. Louis and the Effects it Had on Immigrants

 

Featuring Lauren Rhodes, genealogy librarian, St. Louis County Library

 

This meeting will be hybrid: in-person at the Clark Family Branch, St. Louis County Library, 1640 South Lindbergh Boulevard, St. Louis, MO 63131, and via Zoom.

(A link to a Google map with directions to the library is here.)

The year 1849 saw a cholera epidemic sweep up the Mississippi River and take the lives of nearly five thousand St. Louisans, one-tenth of the city’s population. This presentation will examine the factors that contributed to the epidemic and its impact on the city’s immigrant population.
