The Harbor Springs Area Historical Society’s Program Coordinator Beth Wemigwase shares the story of Ephraim Shay during this roughly one-hour lecture on Tuesday, January 18 at 7:00 pm. The presentation will include a look at Shay’s 50-foot steel yacht the “Aha,” his unique, stamped-steel home, and the invention which made him famous, the Shay geared locomotive.

Originally from Ohio, she received her Master’s in Historical Administration from Eastern Illinois University.
