Learning about Starksboro Through Maps Program
On Thursday, April 19, 2018, enjoy an illustrated presentation, "Learning about Starksboro Through Maps," offered by the Starksboro Historical Society, Meeting House Society, and Conservation Commission. The program, which starts at 7 pm, is at the Starksboro Village Meeting House, 2875 VT Route 116.

The Historical Society has recently received a donation of an 1857 Wallings wall map of Addison County, the inspiration for the program. Michael Blakeslee and Elsa Gilbertson will offer the program, showing images of maps over time and what they can reveal about Starksboro. Of particular interest will be orthoquad aerial photo maps and the most recent LiDAR (Light Detection And Ranging remote sensing) mapping being conducted by the State of Vermont. The LiDAR mapping can reveal old roads, cellar holes, and interesting landforms. All these maps are good resources for doing research.

All are welcome. Light refreshments. Donations to the historical society for the map conservation work and to the Meeting House for the restoration project appreciated. Parking is behind the Meeting House and in the town center lot in back of the town clerk's office.
