Dining with the Dead on October 5 From Mike Watson October is the 20th anniversary of Silent City programming. ACGS will be hosting four programs--one each Monday evening in October--in celebration of this anniversary and to bring together those who love local and family history. This is America250! and Adair County Genealogical Society's 40th year as well. The first October event, "Dining with the Dead" will be held at 5pmCT on Monday, October 5, 2026, at the Columbia Cemetery, the same location of the Silent City programs and Lanterns & Tombstones Tours. This will be a pot-luck "bean soup" dinner, set up on the cemetery drive, on the main loop near the "big blue barn". Those who bring food please arrive by 5pm so we can set up for the event which will begin at 5:30pmCT. There will be soups, chili, bbq, soup beans, and the fixings that go along with those items, as well as desserts. Water, tea, and lemonade will be provided. Serving tables will be on site; bring your chair and enjoy this time of fellowship much as our ancestors would have when reunions, singings, and cemetery working days were the norm. Dave Thomas and Mike Watson will speak about the cemetery's history and a few of the permanent inhabitants. We invite you to bring a dish and be a part of our history! Parking at the Justice Center parking area and/or the Farmer's Market parking lot. Walk up the drive between the Justice Center and Fire Department--the same route we take to Silent City from the Research Center and on Lanterns & Tombstones Tours. If the weather is foul, do not despair, we will convene at the History Center, 307 Greensburg Street, and proceed just the same. This story was posted on 2026-09-14 13:38:04
