Local History Book

Schuyler Public Library recently received a book from Larry F. Carter of Omaha. He is the great-great grandson of early Schuyler resident George Sprecher. The book, “…in love and fidelity, George Sprecher”, contains Civil War letters Sprecher wrote to his wife, Sarah Ann, while he served in the Union Army. In 1872, Sprecher and his wife moved to Schuyler, where they lived out the rest of their lives. It is a very interesting book, and I hope history buffs will pick it up. We are grateful to Carter for this wonderful addition to our library!
