Kevin Herridge will discuss the history of the Belleville Iron Works and the assorted businesses and other uses that followed its closure.
Kevin Herridge is one of the co-founders of the Algiers Historical Society (AHS) and was president for 15 years. An avid collector of all things Algiers, he has been collecting, writing and publishing articles in the “The Algerine” since day one. An amateur historian, he has a love of genealogy and local history and has researched and written three self-guided walking tours of Algiers - one a historical tour of Algiers Point, and the other two concentrate on the rich history of jazz throughout all the neighborhoods of Algiers. Kevin is currently an AHS Board member and consulting editor for "The Algerine".
In partnership with the Algiers Historical Society.
