2025 Annual Meeting

Agenda

• A brief business meeting required by our bylaws.
  
• A look back at last year’s accomplishments (and we've been doing a lot!).
  
• Short presentations sharing recent research into local history.
• • The Humphrey Merrill House.  Kyle Lucas will share how he solved a historical jigsaw puzzle to discover who built his home at 220 Middle Road and when.
  • The Opening Volley.  An attack on an isolated homestead overlooking the Presumpscot River in September 1675 marked the arrival of King Philip's War in Falmouth.  We will describe how the event galvanized the townspeople.  Period accounts were vague about the location of the homestead.  We will explain how we identified the site of the Wakely homestead.
