Join the Windham Historical Society on Sunday, September 26, as we take a walk through Arlington Cemetery in North Windham and introduce you to the ancestors of some of Windham’s well-known families.
The Windham Historical Society is happy to announce that this year’s Holiday Fair will be held in partnership with Friends Church. The fair will take place on Saturday, November 9, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Friends Church, 374 Gray Road in Windham.
Rosemary Mosher, who works with the Geographic Information Center (GIS), will present this wonderful program that will begin with the earliest history of Windham using early maps, particularly the map of 1871. Through her GIS work, Rosemary is able to isolate homes, stores, schools, cemeteries, and other notable town locations and she will show aerial “now and then” comparisons of various areas of town. This program is quite remarkable and we guarantee it will intrigue you.
