For residents of McHenry County, the connection with that war is tied to Major William McHenry, who fought in it and was reported to have led a number of foot soldiers through this region during the summer of 1832. His military record and service to the state earned him the honor of having a county named after him. Crawford B. - Thayer, historian, editor and actor, will highlight the Black Hawk War of 1832 as it moved up Rock River and across Wisconsin at 2 p.m. at the museum according to Nancy Fike, museum curator. Thayer has published three eye-witness accounts of the last Indian war in Wisconsin. His tjilogy is composed of "Hunting A Shadow: The Search for Black SUPER SPRING Set LAWN MOWING & MAINTEN ANCF SERVICE AVAIL ABI t m. ( - l . S 'M?

With an animated style and wry sense of humor, Thayer brings the Black Hawk war to life through eye-witness ac­ counts, providing a ring-side view of history. He follows General Atkinson's army as it pursues Black Hawk and his starving band of Sauk and Fox IndiansTup Rock River, across to the Wisconsin River, and finally to the Mississippi River, where the action ends at today's Victory, Wis. *A native of Haverhill, Mass., with degrees from Bowdoin College, the University of Iowa, and Yale University, Thayer is a former college instructor. A second career, begun in 1951, saw him as advertising manager of a farm equipment manufacturer. After becoming director of the "Black Hawk" outdoor pageant in Fort Atkinson in 1971, Thayer became so intrigued by its historical content and by the reception of enthusiastic audiences that he took early retirement in 1981 to research, edit, and publish the eye-witness reports he has been collecting for 13 years. Thayer will autograph his books before and after his presentation. Thayer presents more than 52 programs a year to schools, ^church groups, service clubs, historical societies, youth groups, senior citizens, and other organizations. Beginning in May, the County Historical Museum in Union will be open Sunday and Wednesday afternoons from 1:30 to 4:30 p.m. There is a small admission charge for non-members.
