Money, Money, Money – Making a Living in the 19th Century at Northborough Historical Society

The Northborough Historical Society will hold its monthly meeting on April 25, 2014 at 7:30 PM. The evening's program will be Money, Money, Money – Making a Living in the 19th Century, presented by Society members Ellen Racine, Cynthia Atwood and Kathleen Pierce.


Our three presenters will don period costumes and portray a number of 19th Century Northborough residents including Farmer Lewis Fay, Dr. Henry Jewett, mill worker Nettie Johnson, and Sarah Flagg Bailey, who taught school in one of Northborough’s one-room school houses.  The performers will dramatize the lives of these various Northborough townsfolk and show how they and scores of other residents earned their keep in the growing and changing town.


Meetings are held at the Historical Society building, 50 Main Street (corner of Main and School Streets) in Northborough. There is no charge to attend. All are welcome.
