For some social history background related to Robert “King”  Hooper’s “Great House at Danvers,” social historian Judy Anderson of Marblehead will present an illustrated talk (in Danvers) about the two dozen members of Robert “King” Hooper’s family in Marblehead, Newburyport, and Danvers. You’ll find drama, tragedy, high-end fashion, nearly twenty portraits by J.S. Copley, complex family relations, and intriguing marriage stories. It will place Hooper’s four marriages and his famously Loyalist stance into perspective.
