Ramsey County History
Priscilla Farnham Retires
Priscilla Farnham has spent her 20-year career preserving artifacts,
publishing information, and presenting the history of Ramsey County
to the public. Farnham became executive director of the society in
1992, following the tenure of long-time director Virginia Brainard
Kunz. Board Chair, Paul Verrett said Farnham's legacy will last far
into the future. "Priscilla Farnham leaves a remarkable record
of contributions. Her visionary leadership not only has built the
Ramsey County Historical Society into an organization recognized
nationally for excellence, but also has laid out a blueprint for our
future." John Lindley, the society's editor, will serve as interim
