“A History of the Paquachuck Inn” with Brenda Figuerido
Thursday, October 18th, 2007
7 PM at the Paquachuck Inn
2056 Main Road, Westport Point
A brief annual meeting will be followed by a presentation on the history of the Paquachuck Inn. Brenda Figuerido, the current owner of the inn, will share some of her ongoing research into the history of the building. Built by Isaac Cory in the 1820’s, the building was central to the commercial life of Westport Point during the whaling and shipbuilding era and served as a general store, post office, and customs house.
The program will be followed by a reception in honor of Bill Wyatt who is retiring as President of the Historical Society. We invite you to celebrate his eight years of service to the Society and his tireless efforts over the years to document, promote and preserve the historical understanding of Westport.
Admission is free, but donations will be gladly accepted. Refreshments will be provided. Please call 508-636-6011 for reservations.
