Historical Society meeting includes readings from Pioneer History of Orleans County
MEDINA – The Medina Historical Society will present a special program at its first meeting of the year, at 7 p.m. Monday at Lee-Whedon Memorial Library.
Board members will do a reading from the book Pioneer History of Orleans County, which has recently been reprinted. Copies of the book will be available to purchase. The book was written by Arad Thomas and originally published in 1871. It tells of the towns in Orleans County and the arduous journeys of the pioneers, said Historical Society president Reinhard Rogowski.
The evening’s program is organized by Orleans County Historian Catherine Cooper.
The Historical Society invites anyone to attend and consider joining the society. A family membership will entitle the purchaser to receive a free copy of Georgia Thomas’ book of maple syrup recipes.
