1858 Local Antique Map Viewing

 

Local history buffs! We welcome to the Library Bob Zaremba, owner of Maps of Antiquity of Chatham, Wednesday, February 28 @ 7pm. Zaremba is presenting an original 1858 antique map of Barnstable, Dukes & Nantucket, which features seven Cape & Island engraved scenes, a list of businesses, and town boundaries are included.

The map shows Billingsgate Island, the hydrologic/water connection between Pleasant Bay and Nauset Harbor, early railroad routes, old names for villages. Great for genealogical work. Join us to glimpse this rare piece of Cape history.
