SUMMARY:Dressing for Tea with Mrs. Chapman
DESCRIPTION:Serving Tea in the Chapman-Hall House \nDressing for Tea with Mrs. Chapman brings to you a look at the changes in fashion styles for women and men from 1750 to the late 1820s. Interwoven with the clothing details will be historical insights to taking tea. \nIn 1754\, Miriam Chapman\, with her husband Nathaniel\, braved the wilds of unsettled midcoast Maine to establish a new home. Miriam was 47\, the Damariscotta settlement was very young. One can imagine the pleasures and comforts Miriam left behind in Ipswich\, Massachusetts. Despite the lack of a bustling town in her new surroundings\, chances are Miriam found a friend to take tea with and discuss the fashion of the day. \nThis fun\, special program will be presented over ZOOM on May 5th at 6:30 PM. With your registration you will receive recipes for traditional tea fare\, a list of tea varieties popular in the 18th and 19th centuries\, and a list of foods suitable for any early American tea for your next tea – all delivered by e-mail. Dressing for Tea with Mrs. Chapman is a benefit for the Chapman-Hall House Historic Site in Damariscotta. Registration is $15. \n  \nRegister now online:\n\n  \nTo register by check:\nPlease mail your check for $15\, a note indicating that you are registering for “Dressing for Tea with Mrs. Chapman” and your email address (so we can send you the Zoom link and additional materials) to us at: \nLincoln County Historical Association\, PO Box 61\, Wiscasset\, ME 04578 \n\n

SUMMARY:Where There’s a Will\, There’s a Way: Uncovering the Life of Quash\, a Black Man in Eighteenth-Century Lincoln County
DESCRIPTION:Pre-registration required to receive Zoom Link \nIn the spring of 2020\, while working on a genealogy project in the history of a local white family in Lincoln County\, Maine\, independent researcher James Tanzer came across a digital copy of the will of a formerly enslaved Black man named Quash\, who lived in Topsham\, Maine during the eighteenth century. \nEager to learn more about Quash\, but unable to find any mention of him in local history books\, James decided to research Quash’s life himself. Thus began a months-long project in local history to uncover the life of Quash\, and bring his memory to the fore once again in the communities in which he lived. \nBy searching for evidence in Quash’s surroundings\, including town records and social connections\, not only was James able to find direct evidence of Quash’s life\, but build a vibrant picture of a well-connected\, motivated\, and successful individual\, whose story adds weight to arguments that Black history is there to be found\, if only we know where to look. \n  \nJames Tanzer is originally from the North Shore of Boston\, and currently resides in Bath. He has worked in the museum field for almost 30 years\, and has spent the last twelve years as the Outreach Coordinator for the Peary-MacMillan Arctic Museum at Bowdoin College. Since 2020 James has been researching free and enslaved Black residents of Topsham and Brunswick in the 18th- and early 19th centuries\, and is committed to uncovering the stories of these hidden Mainers. \nClick here to register online

SUMMARY:Black History of Maine with Bob Greene
DESCRIPTION:  \nPre-registration required to receive Zoom Link:  \nhttps://www.eventbrite.com/e/black-history-of-maine-with-bob-greene-tickets-256856654167 \nIt is frequently said that Maine is the whitest state in America. Yet Black people have a long history in the Pine Tree State. Slaves? Yes. But also builders\, farmers\, fishermen\, ship captains\, educators\, etc. It’s that hidden history of our state that Bob Greene will reveal. \n\n\nA native of Portland\, Bob Greene is the eighth generation of his family to be born in Cumberland County. His roots in Maine stretch back into the 1700s. After graduating from Portland High\, Bob went off to college and a career as a journalist\, covering among other things airplane crashes\, Mississippi River floods and the funeral of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. He has met three presidents: Harry Truman\, Lyndon Baines Johnson and Robert Mugabe of Zimbabwe. And\, as The Associated Press Tennis Writer\, Bob traveled the world covering the sport. After retiring he returned home to Maine where his genealogical research has led to his deep knowledge about Maine’s Black history. He currently teaches a Black History of Maine course at OLLI (Osher Lifelong Learning Institute} at the University of Southern Maine. Bob also is the 2021 recipient of the Maine Historical Society’s Neal Allen Award\, which is presented each year for exceptional contributions to Maine History.

SUMMARY:“My fingers on the canvas move.”: A History of Textile Samplers with Susan Jerome
DESCRIPTION:Quickly now\, what do you think of when someone begins to speak of a sampler? Words of wisdom\, often from the Bible\, stitched on to a piece of fabric? The alphabet\, in capital and small letters\, embroidered in a cross-stitch in both cursive and block letters? And one form of needlework often signed by the maker\, unlike so many other kinds of needlecraft made by women before the twentieth century. This program explores the ways in which samplers are a part of American culture and folklore. Using images of antique samplers\, Ms. Jerome discusses some of the definitions and ideas surrounding the word “sampler.” What pictures come to mind? How has the term evolved through time? Ms. Jerome explores how textile history and technological changes in fabric production influenced the slow demise of samplers during the 19th century. \n \nSusan J. Jerome is the Collections Manager at the University of Rhode Island Historic Textile and Costume Collection. She earned her MS degree from the URI Department of Textiles\, Fashion Merchandising and Design. Ms. Jerome works as a textile conservator and consultant for private clients\, museums and historical societies. An avid textilian\, she is happiest when writing\, talking and doing all things textile. \nParticipants will: \n\nLearn about textile history and how the development of cheap cotton fabrics influenced sampler making in 19th century America.\nExplore the different meanings of the word “sampler” and why sampler making today is considered to be a “leisure time” activity.\nLearn how to properly store textile heirlooms for future generations.\nLearn something about family samplers.\nBe able to ask questions relevant to textile and sampler history.\n\nThe talk will take place on September 25\, 2021 at 3:00PM at the Pownalborough Court House. The Court House is located at 23 Courthouse Rd\, off Rte. 128 in Dresden. \nInterested? Of course you are! This event is free and open to the public\, but we encourage those planning to attend to email lcha1954@gmail.com for planning purposes.
