We all own the history of our towns, counties, states and countries. In an effort to continue our goal of sharing and making local history accessible to all, we are embarking on five projects focusing on building blocks of history in Essex County, Massachusetts: One Room School Houses, “Ten-Footer” Shoe Shops, Children “Bound-Out”, Slave Gravestones, and Poorhouses & Workhouses. The idea is that this will serve as a launching point for other towns and counties to model. What do you have to add?
