The last generation of Livingstons to live at Clermont included two daughters. The younger of these girls, Janet, has always been one of the more unique members of the family. She charted her own path in the world. Join us as we take a look at Janet Cornelia Livingston, a very modern woman. This program is FREE, but registration is required.
