Every photograph in the collection of the Vigo County Historical Museum tells a unique story. Some of which are well known, some well researched by the great “History Makers” of the past, and some are just a mystery waiting to be solved. This week’s Historical Treasure is one of the many photos from the museum archives that came with no background story what-so-ever. The story begins with the Madison County Historical Society, who seeing it fit to return the photo to its place of origin, arranged to have it delivered to the Vigo County History Center.

Vincennes, IN — Despite June 14, 1936 being a Sunday morning and well on its way toward 90 degrees, nearly 75,000 people waited at the George Rogers Clark Memorial in Vincennes as President Franklin Roosevelt, seated in a black Packard with his wife, Eleanor, and popular Indiana governor Paul McNutt, arrived from Union Depot.
