NH Cemeteries & Gravestones @ Your Library

Thursday, June 23 at 6:30 p.m. - Rubbings, photographs, and slides illustrate the rich variety of gravestones to be found in our own neighborhoods, but they also tell long-forgotten stories. Find out more about these deeply personal works of art and the craftsmen who carved them! Sponsored by the Hooksett Historical Society in association with the Hooksett Public Library. This presentation was made possible by the New Hampshire Humanities Council.

LIBRARY DISPLAY CELEBRATES HISTORY

In recognition of National Preservation Month and Hooksett Heritage Day on May 19, the Robie’s Country Store Historic Preservation Corp. and the Hooksett Heritage Commission have set up a display in the Hooksett Library’s front foyer with photos and artifacts of Hooksett’s past. Photos include a gathering at Indian Cliff in the 1947, K&D Texaco on 3A, and the scooter dealership in South Hooksett. Historical artifacts borrowed from the collection at Robie’s Store include cast iron toys, an egg grader, and kitchen tools, all of which have interesting stories to tell. Stop by during the month of May.
