Monthly Meeting - Tri-State Presents: Hanford Mills Museum

  • Morris Museum (Bickford Theater) 6 Normandy Heights Road Morristown, NJ, 07960 United States (map)

Hanford Mills Museum

Presented by Luke Murphy

Railroads are well known for the prosperity they brought to many towns across the United States. Sometimes, just the expectation of a new line is enough to spark economic development. Join Hanford Mills Museum staff for a discussion of the history of Hanford Mills, the hamlet of East Meredith, NY, and how both the mill and the surrounding area anticipated the arrival of the Ulster and Delaware Railroad. The presentation will also feature Hanford Mills Museum's current operation as a historic water- and steam-powered site.
