"It is sometimes both interesting and instructive to trace the history even of a humble individual from his birth to his death to discover the causes which influenced his conduct, the circumstances which tended to form his character, the various incidences and events which shaped his destiny under the direction of an all wise, though often a mysterious Providence."
 
Lewis Weld

" As I have may have told you, I had a grandson named Laurent Clerc Holt - now 9 years old and a very interesting youngster. He takes great pride in his name (nicknamed Larry, of course!) - and we are hopeful he will be as well beloved later on as his famous namesake!"

  Guy B. Holt

Letter to Francis Clerc Ogden, February 5, 1968

Founded in 2022, the Société Laurent Clerc was created to celebrate the life and contributions of this important educator of the Deaf in the United States. Modeled after our French counterparts, The Association Laurent Clerc, our society proposes to focus more attention on Laurent Clerc with the purpose of securing him a United States Commemorative Postal Stamp. Come join the journey with us!
