Description: Meet the Author and Book Signing during May’s Troy Night Out at the Rensselaer County Historical Society. – New York author L. Lloyd Stewart has recently published an extensively researched and documented book on African American history in New York State titled, The Mysterious Black Migration 1800-1820: The Van Vrankens and Other Families of African Descent in Washington County, New York. The author will be at the Rensselaer County Historical Society (RCHS) during May’s Troy Night Out, on May 31, 2013. Mr. Stewart will give a presentation at 6:30pm and will be available to sign copies of his book. The Mysterious Black Migration focuses on the geopolitical and economic conditions that instigated a migration of thousands of “free” African Americans from various New York State counties and New England States to Washington County during a period when slavery was still legal and active in New York State. Mr. Stewart used the archives at RCHS while researching his latest publication, discovering that several of the participants in this migration were former residents of Rensselaer County, who later returned to Rensselaer County. The Mysterious Black Migration is a byproduct of genealogical research begun by the author in 2000. It is the second in a series of books relating to his family’s and other African Americans’ experiences in early New York. His first book, A Far Cry From Freedom: Gradual Abolition 1799-1827, was published in 2006.

In the morning, at 9 AM, archivist and art historian Warren Broderick will lead a 2-hour walking tour to visit the grave sites in the Oakwood of 12 important artists of the 19th and 20th centuries from the Troy area. At each site we will learn why the artist is significant and will receive a handout with a brief biographical sketch and examples of each person’s work. This tour involves a modest fee and one must register with Oakwood Cemetery at oakwood_cemetery@yahoo.com or by calling 272-7520. Following lunch (from 11:30 to 1:00) (they recommend the Lansingburgh Café at 112th Street and Fifth Avenue) meet at 1:30 PM at the Melville House, where the work of Lansingburgh artists will be on display. One of these artists, John Connors, will speak about and display his work and provide a live demonstration of his techniques.
