May 14 – Jay Smith – John Morton-A signer of the
Declaration of Independence

As the United States approaches its 250th anniversary,
Jay’s lecture topic could not be more timely or significant.

He argues that few historical figures embody Finlandia
Foundation National’s mission more profoundly than John
Morton-the Finnish-descended signer of the Declaration
of Independence whose decisive vote helped secure
American independence.
