The initial meeting of the recently organized Fenian Historical Society dedicated to the study of the militant Irish national movement in the 19th century takes place at 1 PM on Sunday, January 18, at Ri Ra Irish pub in Burlington, 123 Church Street. Everyone with an interest in local and/or Irish history is welcome as we discuss the formation of the Fenian Brotherhood in Vermont. We are planning to commemorate the invasion launched from VT and NY into Canada in 1866, so reenactors of the period and historians are particularly urged to attend. Other Irish groups will also be represented and local musicians will perform at a "session" of Irish music at 3:30 PM. Free and open to the public. Come to be educated and entertained. More info available at 644-2433 if required.
