Diving into Monkton's Past

Past event
Oct 16, 2023, 7 to 8 PM

Join Monkton Museum and Historical Society's presentation: Diving Into Monkton's History. Lauren Parren, Candace Polzella, and Cindy Walcott will share their two-year journey into exploring Monkton's Past. They'll describe their work on three projects: the Monkton Ridge Walking Tour, Cataloging the MMHS collection, and the publication of the East Monkton History book. Included will be tips for accessing local historical information for anyone else interested in doing research, lessons learned along the way, and evidence that history is alive! They'll conclude with an invitation to consider future research possibilities.

Copies of the new book will be available at the meeting for $12. It is also free online https://www.monktonhistory.org/wp-content/uploads/East_Monkton_History.pdf

Also, please remember that it is the stories of people who lived here who make our history uniquely interesting. Please send in any stories or photos or other Monkton memorabilia to this form: : https://docs.google.com/forms/d/14IRF0_5F3Bha9a102F_Y4RjwOUZdu2OSUxYr88GKNtU/edit

Please join us at the new Town Hall at 7:00 on Monday, Oct. 16th. A zoom link will be made available on Monday.
