Aurora House Histories: Your Home Has a Story

Curious about the history of your house? When was it built? What style is it? Who were the original owners? Join us to find answers to your questions about Aurora house histories!

Author and local historian Julia Johnas will present an illustrated step-by-step program on how to research the history of your house. She served for more than 20 years at the research liaison to the Highland Park Historic Preservation Commission and currently provides research assistance to historians, architects and architectural survey firms. This program is tailored specifically for those researching properties in Aurora, Illinois.
