Local author Jacque Reeves will be the guest speaker at the quarterly meeting of the Limestone County Historical Society on Sunday, April 21, at the Presbyterian Church Rodgers Center. She will speak about Marquis de LaFayette’s return tour of the U.S exactly 200 years ago.

LaFayette, Ala., is named for Marquis de Lafayette, but Reeves will speak about his importance to the region including his connection to LaGrange Mountain.

Reeves, who has given several talks in Athens is known for her tremendous enthusiasm, historical accuracy, interesting details and storytelling abilities.

Reeves has written several books on the history of North Alabama including “Hidden History of North Alabama,” “Wicked North Alabama” and “Where Spirits Linger: Huntsville’s Haunted Past.”

The research into her 17 true crime and history books combined with her involvement as the past president of the Huntsville-Madison County Historical Society, former curator of the Donnell House, past president of the Maple Hill Cemetery Stroll and owner of Avalon Tours and Huntsville Ghost Walk has given Reeves unique knowledge about North Alabama History.

Jacque Reeves’ presentation will begin at 3 p.m. with refreshments served beforehand at 2:30 p.m.
