Hair Locket | Artifact Iowa

In colonial America, keeping locks of hair was a common form of remembrance, particularly for family members, but also for prominent figures such as George Washington and Anthony Wayne. This gold locket, containing locks of hair from both men, was passed down through the Delaney family of Philadelphia and later into the Rag family, who donated it to the State Historical Society of Iowa in 1897. Artifact Iowa tells Iowa’s story through real objects from Iowa’s past. Each episode will center on a single artifact to unpack the larger human story behind it - revealing moments of innovation, resilience, creativity and change that define our state’s history. www.iowapbs.org/artifactiowa
