Historic: lecture

7:00 p.m.

Please join us for a talk by Dr. Claire McHale Milner, Curator and Director of Exhibits at Penn State’s Matson Museum of Anthropology. 

Dr. Milner will discuss two farmsteads that Penn State students have been excavating in Huntingdon County over the past four summers. Daniel Massey, a farmer and founding member of Huntingdon County’s Farmers Association, owned both of these farms during the mid to late 19th century. Milner and Penn State students have been studying differences in house construction and artifacts between the two sites to better understand life in Central Pennsylvania during the dynamic 19th century.
