SUMMARY:A Dakota Summer Story: Camping at Oahe with the Eastman Family
DESCRIPTION:The Historical Society of Cheshire County invites the public to a presentation on Wednesday\, July 12th at 6:30 pm on the outdoor education created by Charles (Ohiyesa) Eastman—Dakota physician\, author\, and activist. The Eastman family founded Camp Oahe in 1916 in Stoddard\, NH as a summer camp for girls. Guest lecturer\, Professor Kiara Vigil of Amherst College will provide new insights into the “playing Indian” phenomenon that was a large part of an American youth wilderness movement. For the Eastmans\, “Indian play” served a broader pedagogical and political purpose. Their camp sought to teach young white girls about the values of Dakota teachings to recast Indian culture. Professor Vigil’s lecture provides an analysis of early twentieth-century gender roles\, dynamics\, and expectations related to Indian people to reveal another dimension of outdoor education in shaping American attitudes toward identity\, family\, childhood\, and nation. \nSeating is limited please register to attend this event.

SUMMARY:Found Films of the 1910s with film historian Larry Bennaquist
DESCRIPTION:In 2006\, 7 reels of silent 35 mm film\, from 1911 to 1913\, were found in a barn in Nelson\, NH. These films had most probably been entertainment for a boys’ summer camp on Granite Lake. \nOf these seven reels\, two comprised a 25 minute film directed by John Ford’s older brother\, Francis\, in 1913\, entitled “When Lincoln Paid.” Of the seven films on Lincoln directed by Francis\, this is the only one known to survive. “Parson Sue\,” a one-reel film directed by Alice Guy Blaché in 1912\, is a comedy Western short film\, and most probably the first Western-themed filmed ever to be directed by a woman. “Their First Misunderstanding” is a comedy short starring and written by Mary Pickford in 1911\, her first film after separating from Biograph\, and the first film to have the film’s star advertised by name. \nThe Historical Society of Cheshire County invites the public to a film viewing and discussion with film historian Larry Benaquist on Wednesday\, June 28th\, 6:30pm. These films are being shown in conjunction with the Historical Society’s newest exhibit Hello Mother\, Hello Father: a history of summer camps in NH’s Monadnock Region. \nSeating is limited.

SUMMARY:"Out of Date and Ahead of its Time" Book Event
DESCRIPTION:Presentation “Out of Date and Ahead of its Time” by Historic Harrisville and Authors Elizabeth Durfee Hengen & Robert H. Russell followed by a Q&A and book signing. \nJune 1\, 2023 | 6:00 pm \nFree and open to the public\, click here to register. \nHistorical Society of Cheshire County \n246 Main Street Keene\, NH \nwww.hsccnh.org | 603-352.1895 \nIn 1970\, the textile mill that was the heart and economy of Harrisville filed for bankruptcy and closed its doors. Yet fifty years later\, the village and mill buildings survive – in fact\, thrive. Today\, the village boasts a lively general store\, post office\, children’s center\, affordable housing\, artist studios\, a woolen yarn spinning mill\, and hydroelectric and solar power – surrounded by nearly 150 acres of conserved land. \nThis unusual small-town success is in part a consequence of a radical idea that became Historic Harrisville\, Inc. To celebrate the first five decades of this unlikely nonprofit organization\, Historic Harrisville’s story has finally been set down in full. Written and assembled by preservation specialist Elizabeth Durfee Hengen and conservation expert Robert H. Russell\, Out of Date and Ahead of Its Time is an illuminating portrait of this pioneering effort. Weaving interviews\, archival material\, and choice historical context with full-color photographs\, Hengen and Russell explore the origin of the organization and how it maneuvered long odds\, necessity\, and luck to remain essential for more than fifty years. A distinctly local story of determination and originality\, Out of Date and Ahead of Its Time is a unique tribute to a groundbreaking organization that is responsible for America’s most completely preserved mill village. \n

SUMMARY:Book Launch- Iron Roads of the Monadnock Region Vol.3
DESCRIPTION:Meet the authors of Iron Roads of the Monadnock Region Vol.3\nSaturday\, May 20\, 2023\, from 10 am -12 pm\n  \nIron Roads Volume III is a pictorial volume prepared to complement and enrich Volumes I and II with 300 recently discovered\, mostly unpublished photos. The images are rich in historic landscapes\, railroad action\, and people.  Thumbnail historical reviews of the railroads discussed in the two earlier volumes are also included. The remains of abandoned railroads\, slowly fading away\, grow fewer by the year. Many former railroad structures and landscapes are scarcely recognizable at all today. Images in Iron Roads bring “railroad days” in the Monadnock Region back to life and come as close as possible to transporting the reader back to those days. Iron Roads is a ticket-to-ride. All aboard! \nClick here to purchase Iron Roads of the Monadnock Region Vol. 3 (square.site)
