Take a Look Back at Burlington History with the Bennett Family

The following is a release from Mary Nohelty, President of the Burlington Historical Society:

The Burlington Historical Society will be hosting a roundtable discussion with Bennett family members.  Bennett ancestors first came to town around the 1800’s and in time owned acres of farmland.  Farmland that is no more...but how interesting it will be to learn about and try to picture those old farms.  They will be mentally pictured up and down Cambridge Street, Sears Street and Bedford Street.

So come join in and reminisce.  You are welcome to bring your own stories about Burlington of old and to share and enjoy.  History is fascinating and meant to be shared.  Refreshments will be available after the program.

We will meet in the Kelly Murray Wing which is on the first floor of the Human Services Center at 61 Center Street on Thursday, March 1.  Doors open at 6:30 and the program starts at 7:00 pm.  Guest fee is only $2.00.  Hope to see you!
