Join the Conversation

We are pleased to announce that our online exhibit, “Voices from the Past”, is now live on our website. Access the collection at http://plymouthantiquarian.org/spooner-letters/. Created by intern Sofie Koonce, the exhibit includes digital copies of 10 letters from our archival collection, transcriptions with annotations, and background information including biographies, photographs, and family trees. During Women’s History Month, we invite you to meet Mary, Esther, Frona, and Maud Spooner, whose letters offer a glimpse of everyday life in the 19th century.

This informal conversation about local history is open to everyone. To register for the free Zoom webinar, click here.

This Lunchtime Conversation will also be live-streamed to the Antiquarian Society’s Facebook page. A recording will be available for viewing after the event on the Society’s website.
