THE MATHER LEGACY: AN AMERICAN STORY

 

The Mather Homestead Foundation will produce a 15-minute film chronicling the 400-year legacy of the Mather family to coincide with America’s 250th celebration.

​

• Gives viewers a personal passport into our nation's & our state's amazing past.

• Will serve as an essential educational tool for Connecticut American history classes in the 8th and 11 grades - with an accompanying on-line teacher’s guide and curriculum.

• And also will be made available to all the Connecticut libraries and history museums.  

• CBS News’ Scott Pelley will be the narrator. 

• Will be premiered in late June 2026 at the Darien Public Library.
