Historical and Arts Society to host Bob Maker
The Dartmouth Historical and Arts Society will be hosting guest speaker Bob Maker on Sunday, Jan. 24. at 6:30 p.m. at the Russells Mills Schoolhouse.
Maker will be discussing Henry Worth, a historian from New Bedford who was active during the first part of the twentieth century.
Worth was a member and officer of the Old Dartmouth Historical Society from its inception, a lecturer and the author of more than 20 essays. His best-known work, in collaboration with photographer Fred Palmer, documented the oldest houses in the area.
Maker lives in New Bedford and has been a student of local history and genealogy for many years.
Suggested donations are $5. Refreshments will be served. The Russells Mills Schoolhouse is located at 1205 Russells Mills Road.
