The February ATHS meeting will feature a special guest speaker, local historian Bernard Noble. Bernie's presentation will explain and show the intricate process by which the historic and potentially fragile brick New Haven Junction station was moved and saved. Its new home is 1.6 miles overland on North Street, New Haven. A short business meeting will follow.
We'll meet at 2 pm Sunday, February 11 at the Addison Fire Station, 44 VT Rt. 17 West.
Bernie Noble grew up in numerous Addison County towns, spending most of his early years in Salisbury. He attended Junior High and high school at Middlebury. After graduating fron UVM, he was a Middle School teacher at Middlebury Union Middle school for thirty years, retiring in 2000. An avid history buff, Noble has done archaeological work on Mount Independence, been a re-enactor in a Revolutionary War group (Whitcomb's Rangers) and has written three books so far on Civil War soldiers buried in the Addison County towns of Goshen, Leicester, Orwell and New Haven. Currently he is working on Civil War veterans from Bristol.
