SUMMARY:The Not-So-Good Life of the Colonial Goodwife
DESCRIPTION:EVENT UPDATE:  Wed. May 19\,2021.  7pm. \nOnline program Register here :\nThe Not-So-Good Life of the Colonial Goodwife\nBinge-watch Vikings\, Game of Thrones\, or Outlander\, and you’ll see people being disemboweled\, tortured\, and decapitated – but you won’t see anything about menstruation\, chamber pots\, birth control\, breastfeeding\, or poopy babies.  Even though Google cars have been invented and women won the vote almost 100 years ago\, these “unsanitary” subjects still make people uncomfortable.\n\nThe Historical Society of Cheshire County is tackling these and other topics on Wednesday\, May 19th at 7pm.  This presentation isn’t about spinning wheels or quilting bees – it explores the engrossing “taboo” subjects omitted from history. Ehris Urban and Velya Jancz-Urban’s enthusiastic delivery is funny and frank. Laugh\, grimace\, and honor our foremother’s journeys while learning about the little-known issues faced by New England’s colonial women.\n\nThis program is offered free to the public thanks in part to the Putnam Foundation and New Hampshire Humanities.

SUMMARY:Annual Meeting & Presentation
DESCRIPTION:Online Event ~ Registration is required click here\n\n\nThree Years in Camp and Hospital: the tales and tunes of Stoddard’s Elbridge W. Locke\n\nFrom History of Cheshire and Sullivan Counties\, New Hampshire 1886: “The most widely known member of the Locke family is ELBRIDGE W. LOCKE\, who\, as a writer of short poems and songs\, a composer of music\, and a pubic singer\, has a reputation the family may well be proud of. Sent to the army by President Lincoln to sing for the soldiers\, he became army postmaster and often associated as nurse in the hospitals at the front\, and long before the three years of his time with the soldiers that had expired\, he was probably known to more soldiers than any other civilian in the country. His book\, “Three Years in Camp and Hospital\,” had a large sale\, and the “boys in blue” who saw him mounted on a stump of a tree\, with a brigade of three thousand men packed around him\, listening to the stirring songs and amusing stories\, will never forget him.” In this class we will read excerpts of Locke’s engaging and salty memoir\, “Three Years in Camp and Hospital”\, listen to a selection of his songs\, and learn about some of his musical contemporaries in the Monadnock Region.\n\n— \n\nwww.jaziminamacneil.com

SUMMARY:The Rusts\, The Slades and The Burroughs: what a small historic cemetery can teach us about the function and structure of early Anglo-American communities in New Hampshire
DESCRIPTION:The Rusts\, The Slades and The Burroughs: what a small historic cemetery can teach us about the function and structure of early Anglo-American communities in New Hampshire.\n\nWednesday\, February 17\,2021 at 6:00pm\nFree online event\nClick here to register\n\nAfter the end of the French and Indian War (1763)\, Anglo-American towns all along the Connecticut River Valley sprung into being. They were generally populated by groups of interrelated extended families from established and over crowded towns in southern New England. Alstead\, NH was one such place. But years before the town proper was established\, a group of those Anglo-American settlers\, a handful of siblings\, in-laws and neighbors\, set up an early enclave that functioned as a town in microcosm. It provided its residents with traditional English political and social infrastructure\, including a cemetery.\n\nNew Hampshire archaeologist Gail Golec offers a fascinating look at uncovering the history of a community by studying its cemeteries. Golec manages the blog The Secret Life of Death.

SUMMARY:“Sirkka” is a documentary film about the life of Sirkka Tuomi Holm (1920-2020). Film & Discussion
DESCRIPTION:View film December 3 – 10\, 2020 free on Vimeo and then join us on 12/10/2020 at 7pm for a Zoom discussion with filmmaker Kristin Ojaniemi and Finnish American Heritage Center director James Kurtti.\nRegistration required to receive film and discussion link.  Click here to register\nSirkka shares the story of a 100-year old NH resident who recently died on October 27\, 2020. Sirkka Tuomi Holm witnessed almost a century of Finnish-American history. From her Grandfather fighting for the Reds during the Finnish Civil War to her immigrant parents’ involvement in labor strikes\, to being trailed by the FBI\, and being the first woman on the East Coast to be subpoenaed to testify before the House Un-American Activities Committee\, Sirkka led a fascinating life.\nShe spent years on the Finnish-American amateur stage and served overseas during World War II. She spent her life fighting for what she believed in and the rights of others. An actress\, activist and veteran\, Sirkka has written and been involved in numerous books and research on Finnish-America\, labor\, peace activities and feminism.\nJim Kurtti of the Finnish American Heritage Center in Hancock\, Michigan notes “Given the depth and breadth of what Sirkka has fought for and endured in her near-century of life\, this film is not only an engaging work\, but also an invaluable capsule of Finnish-American life and history that will surely resonate not only in present-day Finnish America\, but with future generations of immigrant descendants as well.”\nThis film was produced by Kristin Ojaniemi in partnership with the Finnish American Heritage Center\, and premiered at Sirkka’s 99th birthday celebration in Francestown\, New Hampshire in early August 2019.\nThis virtual program is present through an ongoing partnership between the Historical Society of Cheshire County and the Finnish American Heritage Center in Hancock Michigan.

Social distancing rules will be applied \nThe following times allow free admission\, but limited numbers of customers will be allowed in the sale at any one time.

Rumrill observed\, “Our members always drop off an eclectic selection of titles. Sometimes I wonder what they enjoy more\, cleaning their bookshelves and donating the books\, or browsing the book sale to find books to bring home.” \n  \nRumrill recalls that the idea for the Historical Society to hold a used book sale came 20 years ago from Charles Felix\, the son of Sylvia Felix who owns Eagle Books\, at 19 West Street in Keene.

SUMMARY:The Connecticut: New England's Great River
DESCRIPTION:The Connecticut: New England’s Great River\nNovember 18\, 2020.\n7:00 pm. Via Zoom. \nThe largest river in New England rises in a small beaver pond near the Canadian border and flows over 400 miles through four states\, falling 2\,670 feet to the sea through America’s only watershed-based national fish and wildlife refuge. Adair Mulligan leads an armchair tour of this great river of New Hampshire and Vermont\, exploring its history and natural beauty through the seasons and among the communities that have sprung up along its banks. Next\, the discussion will shift to how the river has influenced the lives of those who live there\, and how they\, in turn\, have affected the river. Much more than a travelogue\, this presentation explores the many issues involved in managing the\nhealth of this major river\, and how citizens from all walks of life have created a vision for its future. \nThis event is made possible by a grant from New Hampshire Humanities. \nTo register for this Zoom presentation\,  click here
