Maritime History Comes Alive
400 years of Lumberton maritime heritage comes alive with an entertaining, one-hour “micro-history” voyage into the town’s fascinating past. Cretaceous-dinosaurs such as the Mosasaurs once swam marl-lined, waterways. Then along came homo sapiens. Agriculture, mills, mining, lumbering, shipyards, and, of course, recreational use churned the tidal waters. This lively presentation showcases how Lumberton anchored the livelihood of communities along the South Branch.
We look forward to seeing you at the LHS meeting on Feb. 21st. Please feel free to contact Elaine at Lumberton Historical Society for further information. www.lumbertonnjhistoricalsociety.com

Been a few days since the blog was tapped. Do apologize. Think at times there is way too many channels for an open discourse…maybe not. Check out the Delaware River Basin Commissions Winter Photo Contest.
