Entry Description A hand-carved piece of Indiana Limestone from California stone carver Frank Maurer will be dedicated to the Indiana State Archives on July 30th. Maurer has traveled the country, providing numerous states archives with hand-carved stones representing their states. Through the stones, Maurer seeks to draw attention to the heritage of Scottish-Americans and Tartan Day. Indiana State Archivist Jim Corridan will accept the Tartan Stone from Maurer at an event on July 30th at 10:30 a.m. at the Indiana State Library (315 W Ohio Street, Indianapolis).
This event is provided at no cost by the Indiana State Archives and State Library. Those of Scottish descent or those interested in history and genealogy are encouraged to attend. Approximately 30-minutes long, Maurer will illustrate the importance of our State Archives while highlighting the history of Scotland and the United States, Tartan Day, as well as his own Scottish genealogy.
