Huge Success for Ken Champlin and the Fall River History Club

The Fall River History Club’s guest speaker tonight was Fall River historian Ken Champlin. He gave a totally fascinating talk on his recent discoveries on the Fisk family and the underground railroad in the city.

We had our largest audience to date: 50 folks, who came out to the library in a snowstorm to hear Ken speak. A lively discussion followed the talk and many people stayed around afterwards to chat and discuss their interests.

Thank you Ken for the most informative and enlightening talk!

Next month, on the 18th of March, we will hear George Peltier discuss the history of the trolly in Fall River. I can’t wait!
