Speaker to describe ‘Maine’s First Millionaire’
AUBURN — The Androscoggin Historical Society kicks off its 96th year with a presentation by retired history teacher David Leigh of Belgrade, who will explore the origins and legacy of Sir Harry Oakes, “Maine’s First Millionaire,” at 7 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 24, in the Davis-Wagg Museum on the third floor of the County Building.
Born in Sangerville in 1874, Sir Harry led an extraordinary life as gold prospector, entrepreneur and real estate developer. His exploits took him around the world and involved him in ventures as varied as golf course development and political representation.
Leigh, a history teacher for over three decades, has shared his knowledge of the subject with audiences aboard cruise ships, at other historical societies and in academic circles.
The program is free and open to the public. Donations are accepted. The county building is at 2 Turner St. An elevator is available, and refreshments will be served after the program.
