SUMMARY:Award-Winning author Katherine Paterson at Centre Congregational Church
DESCRIPTION:Brooks Memorial Library will host a presentation by Katherine Paterson\, two-time winner of the prestigious Newbery Award and the National Book Award\, at Centre Congregational Church\, 193 Main St. in Brattleboro on Friday\, November 12 at 7pm. In conversation with Youth Services Librarian Lindsay Bellville\, Paterson will speak about her recent novel for young people\, Birdie’s Bargain\, in honor of Veteran’s Day. \nBirdie’s father is returning for another tour of duty in Iraq\, so to save money Birdie and her family move from Brattleboro to live with her Gran up north. As if she didn’t have enough to worry about\, the move brings a new school and a puzzling new acquaintance\, which gives Birdie both concern and a cause. Readers of all faiths and backgrounds\, especially children of military families\, will identify with and root for the unforgettable Birdie\, given inimitable voice by this master storyteller. \nKatherine Paterson has written more than thirty books for young people\, including Bridge to Terabithia and My Brigadista Year. She is a recipient of the Hans Christian Anderson Award\, the Astrid Lindgren Memorial Award\, the Laura Ingalls Wilder Award\, and is a former National Ambassador for Young People’s Literature\, an honor bestowed by the Library of Congress. \nBooks will be available for sale and signing. The program is free\, open to the public and accessible to people in wheelchairs. Because it will be held indoors\, all attendees are required to wear masks. For more information call (802) 254-5290.  Sponsored by the Friends of Brooks Memorial Library in partnership with Centre Congregational Church\, Brattleboro Literary Festival\, Candlewick Press\, and Everyone’s Books.

SUMMARY:A Deep Presence: 13\,000 Years of Native American History
DESCRIPTION:Join us at Brooks Memorial Library – October 26th from 6:30-8:00 pm\, 224 Main St\, Brattleboro\, VT 05301 – for a presentation from Dr. Robert Goodby about his life’s work affirming Indigenous relationships in this landscape. His new book will be available for purchase and you will be delighted to learn these lasting stories\, all the more needed as we look toward what is ahead. \nAlmost 13\,000 years ago\, small groups of Paleoindians endured frigid winters on the edge of a river in what would become Keene\, New Hampshire. This begins the remarkable story of Native Americans in the Monadnock region of southwestern New Hampshire\, part of the traditional homeland of the Abenaki people. \nTypically neglected or denied by conventional history\, the long presence of Native people in southwestern New Hampshire is revealed by archaeological evidence for their deep\, enduring connections to the land and the complex social worlds they inhabited. From the Tenant Swamp Site in Keene\, with the remains of the oldest known dwellings in New England\, to the 4\,000-year-old Swanzey Fish Dam still visible in the Ashuelot River\, A Deep Presence tells their story in a narrative fashion\, drawing on the author’s thirty years of fieldwork and presenting compelling evidence from archaeology\, written history\, and the living traditions of today’s Abenaki people. \nRobert Goodby is Professor of Anthropology at Franklin Pierce University. He earned his PhD in anthropology from Brown University and has over thirty years of experience excavating Native American archaeological sites in New England. He is a past president of the New Hampshire Archeological Society\, a former Trustee of the Mt. Kearsarge Indian Museum\, and served on the New Hampshire Commission on Native American Affairs. He has directed over three hundred archaeological studies authorized by the National Historic Preservation Act and his work has appeared in anthropological journals and in anthologies published by the Smithsonian Institution Press and University Press of New England. He has presented more than one hundred talks on his archaeological research for the New Hampshire “Humanities to Go” program\, and every fall speaks to students at the Keene Middle School about the Paleoindian Tenant Swamp Site.

SUMMARY:Windham County Genealogy Interest Group presents the Bureau of Refugees\, Freedmen\, and Abandoned Lands
DESCRIPTION:What recently released FREE collection on Ancestry.com is bigger than the 1880 United States Census? \nIt’s the  Bureau of Refugees\, Freedmen\, and Abandoned Lands\, commonly known as the Freedman’s Bureau\, which “was established in 1865 as a means to provide aid to newly emancipated people transitioning from slavery to freedom. It supported more than 4 million people\, which included some impoverished white people and veterans of the U.S. Colored Troops.” \nThe Bureau was the earliest expression of the Federal government taking responsibility  for  assisting indigent citizens\, over 60 years before FDR’s New Deal.  The Bureau used the full weight and resources of the Federal government to help its citizens. \nAfter the four year struggle of the Civil War much of the economy was in shambles. The Freedman’s Bureau was a huge effort\, especially directed to the former slave states\, to construct a new economy.  The most lasting legacy of the Freedman’s Bureau were the schools established to educate the children of former enslaved people. It also offered hospitals\, employment\, work transportation\, and food\, to those in need. \nJerry and Wayne will give an introduction to this incredible resource\, which is free to all even if you do not have a  Ancestry.com subscription. Whether or not you have  enslaved people as ancestors or family who were touched by the assistance of the Freedman’s Bureau\, you will get an insight to what these records can provide. \nWe will explore pensions\, letters\, labor contracts\, marriages\, and other record sets.  Part of the session will be devoted to sharing our  genealogical research questions and planning topics for the next meeting. \nRegister for the meeting (https://bit.ly/WindhamGen6) \nThe Brooks Memorial Library\, our partner (along with the Rockingham Public Library)\,  has graciously “loaned” us their Zoom account to offer this meeting. Please do not sign-in until a few minutes before 10 AM. \nIf you have not yet done so\, please complete the survey about possible topics to cover in future meetings. \nFor more information please contact windhamcountygig@gmail.com. \nHope to see you there. \n  \nWayne Blanchard & Jerry Carbone \nWindham County Genealogy Interest Group \nwindhamcountygig@gmail.com
