The Friends of Friends of Dighton Rock Museum in cooperation with DCR present the last program of the season.
STAGECOACHES IN BERKLEY Sunday October 13th
1:00 pm—2:30 pm, Dighton Rock Museum
Before there were planes, trains and automobiles, long
distance travel on land in the late 18th and early 19th
centuries was done by horse drawn stagecoaches. Eden Jones
of the Berkley Historical Society will discuss the pleasure and
hazards of this form of travel. Local stagecoach highways and
taverns in the eastern parts of New England will also be
revealed along with stories that may shock you. You won't be
disappointed!
