The
Monroe Historical Society presents the
“Good Old Days” Sunday, March 11 at 2 pm at the Meetinghouse. The Meetinghouse is located at 433 Barn Hill
Road (the corner of Barn Hill Road and East Village Road) in Monroe, CT.
Dateline
1890…
The
buffalo was almost gone from the plains, historians were claiming the frontier
was closed, “Honest Grover” Cleveland was in the White House and people were
singing “Daisy, Daisy, Give Me your Answer True” as immigrants were flocking to
America and businesses were booming!

Join
us for a lecture by Gordon Williams, a retired History teacher who loves to
spin a historic tale as he gives us the scoop on how Americans, both rural and
urban, lived in the Good Old Days of 1890.
This program was previously planned for
November but had to be rescheduled.
There will be a (very)short business meeting to vote on the revised
bylaws.
