One Family’s History: The Nordstrom’s of Worcester

In the Fletcher Auditorium

Thursday, March 26

6 PM

Steven Sabol, a grandnephew of the Nordstrom sisters, will share the story of the tragic March 1940 Charter Apartments fire and the loss of five lives–the three Nordstroms and a resident couple–then considered the most significant loss of life to fire in the city’s history.

An Associate Professor of History at the University of North Charolina, Charlotte, Sabol’s expertise is Russian/Soviet history during World War I, but his passion is genealogy.
