BCHS 94th Annual Meeting
The Brown County Historical Society (BCHS) will hold its 94th Annual Meeting on Thursday, November 14, 2024, at the New Ulm Best Western, New Ulm, MN. The night will begin with socializing at 6:00 p.m. followed by a buffet dinner at 6:30 p.m. The business meeting will begin at 7:00 p.m. and the program will follow immediately after the business meeting. “God created man because He loves stories.” Elie Wiesel “Auslanders: Jews in Germantown” tells the stories of Jewish people determined to earn a living, raise their children, and participate in a Christian community while committed to their religious beliefs. The stories of three unique families who lived in Brown County at different times provides insight into the lives of Jews in small town Minnesota. None of these stories start in Brown County, and the forces that spurred their immigration was the beginning of their journey to become an integral part of the community. Each faced the challenge of adapting to a new language and culture while seeking acceptance in towns with homogeneous populations.
