Our goal is to educate the public as to the vast importance that the Southern Indiana Brewery's founders and families had on not only the Evansville area but the country as a whole. The accomplishments of these families are varied and go far beyond what one would expect from them. Just a few of them are:
An Admiral of the complete Pacific fleet and land troops in the United States Navy.
A State Representative
Inventor of Portland Cement
The beginning of the Dodge truck
The development of refrigerator compressors and so on it goes. These are things that very few people know about these families.
Our goal also is to restore the Hartmetz home and grounds as close as possible to the way it was in 1876.

2025 Am Assoc for State and Local History Annual Conference

TBD

Cincinnati, Ohio

The 2025 AASLH Annual Conference, in partnership with Ohio Local History Alliance, will take place as the history field makes the final preparations to kickoff off the 250th commemoration of the founding of the United States.

The 2025 conference theme, inspired by AASLH’s Making History at 250: The Field Guide for Semiquincentennial, is an opportunity to broadly explore one of the guide’s themes, The American Experiment. For many in the American colonies in 1776, independence from Britain represented a “leap into the dark” into an unknown future

We are excited for you to join us in Cincinnati as we encourage discussion about our democracy and civic institutions and how they can help strengthen understanding, inspire action, and reveal ways that all of us can participate in and shape the ongoing American experiment.

For more information, please call 615-320-3203 or email info@aaslh.org.
