Description

Ground-penetrating radar, a transcript of an 1888 Supreme Court Trial, and land lotteries that the Founders used to assign village homesteads are some of the tools used to uncover one of Southampton’s most perplexing secrets. What happened at Southampton’s Old Burying Ground? Join us for this two-part presentation by Roger Tollefsen and Julie Greene, members of the Southampton Town Historical Burying Ground Committee, who will guide you through the process of discovery that led to a remarkable conclusion. Co-sponsored with the Rogers Memorial Library.
