Faetured Site: Thomas Sappington House Museum 

Find the historical connections between the nearby Sappington family of the Thomas Sappington House Museum, located at 1015 S. Sappington Road, and the Dent/Grant family of White Haven.  What do an acrostic love poem and a foiled assassination attempt have in common?  Learn about life in the early days of south St. Louis county.
