Nanci Haibach will present a program on “Early Beginnings and History of the Graham Block” on April 25th at 6:30 at the North East Historical Society.
Many people have enjoyed Nanci’s talk on the building she owns that is the home of the Elsie Greer Bed and Breakfast, but this is something new she has uncovered.
It is a look into the early beginnings of the West Main Street Lot #6 and Robert Graham in the 1800’s. She will explore the history of relocating a home, expanding the Borough, and making room for the first formal Federal Post Office building. . . . . Where did the Graham Block go?
About Nanci:
Nanci grew up in Erie, the youngest of six children. Her grandparents ran a dairy farm south of North East on Ashton Road where she spent most every weekend and summers. They canned food and worked the farm. She fondly remembers “going to town” (downtown North East), and now with her ownership of the Greer Bed and Breakfast and Bebe’s she is part of it.
She attended Gannon University to obtain a Bachelor of Science in nursing and she spent 16 years in the ICU unit of Hamot Hospital. She continued her nursing career as a travel nurse for six years before retiring and moving to North East.
She has been bitten by a history bug and found local history to be fascinating. When she learns of something that is maybe not common knowledge to most North East residents, she just has to find all about it!
