Three Men and a One-Shilling Knife: A Genealogical Look at Local History

Wednesday, June 10 at 6:00 PM

Presented by Robert Cameron Weir of the New Hampshire Society of Genealogists, this engaging program uses a dramatic 1788 tavern killing in New Durham to show how genealogists uncover stories from the past. Through newspapers, court records, military records, petitions, and other original sources, the lecture follows the intertwined lives of three Revolutionary War veterans and reveals how family history research can illuminate the people, events, and communities of New Hampshire’s past.

Hoopla Borrowing Limits

The Madbury Public Library is pleased to be able to offer this popular digital media collection. Due to the rising cost of electronic books and the pay per use model for the hoopla service, we have had to make some modifications in order for this service to continue to be sustainable. Cardholders are now able to access three downloads per month.
