Around Town: Ramsey Family to Participate in Recreation of Historic Trip

Way back in 1909, Peter Ramsey’s grandmother became the first woman to drive cross-country across the United States. Dr. Richard Anderson, a Pacific Northwest antique car aficionado, and his 34-year old daughter Emily, decided to recreate the drive (and the car) on its 100th anniversary, starting on June 9.

Andrew Ramsey will be riding in the back seat for the first day of the trip, while Peter and Isabel will alternate as “parent backseat driver” while the other parent drives their Honda Accord to Cobleskill NY to meet the car the end of the day!
