The Cavendish
Historical Society (CHS) is looking for artifact from the 1st peoples that
lived here. Carmine Guica reported that while he was exploring cellar holes he
came across a variety of arrow heads or projectile points. Have you found such
items in Cavendish? Have you found unusual rocks or stones that appear to be
"worked?" They could have been used for grinding corn or acorns. Does
your family lore contain stories of Indians, gypsies or "Dark French?" If you
have any information, please contact CHS at margocaulfield@icloud.com or
802/226-7807, CHS, PO Box 472, Cavendish VT 05142 or stop by the Museum on
Sunday, Oct. 1 from 2-4.
October
8 (Sunday) is the last day the CHS Museum will be open for the summer season.
It will also be the afternoon of the Proctorsville Ghost Walk. There
are many ghosts in Proctorsville village including: George (because he looks
like George Clooney) who haunts The Golden Stage Inn; a ghost who has rights
written into the deed of the house; Homer and Charlie have their special places
to haunt and that’s just the beginning.
The Ghost Walk is free and open to
the public. Walkers should meet at the Proctorsville War Memorial-Route 131,
near the Village Clipper and across from the Proctorsville Green, at 2 pm. The
walk will be approximately two hours and will be on side walk. This is a free
event open to the public.
