Our June website and newsletter features will honor our Belgian Forefathers. If you would like to include a Belgian ancestor, email contact@belgianheritagecenter.org. For ideas, see our previous feature, Our Belgian Foremothers - just go the the Feature tab and scroll down to Featured Family.
Every two weeks, a new video is available at BHC's YouTube channel. Our most recent additions include information about Belgian roadside chapels and a surprising discovery about what happens when women aren't allowed to drink in the taverns. Be sure to subscribe to our channel - more videos will be released soon!
Two new books are now available at BHC. The Brown County Historical Society just released "The Great Fires in Wisconsin of 1871", a reprint of eye witness accounts of the fire reported by Frank Tilton in 1871 plus two modern day analyses of the fire. "When the Night Rained Fire", a new book by Virginia Feld Johnson, covers the fire and its aftermath in Kewaunee County. Books are available by visiting BHC or the Merchandise page of this website.
