All are welcome to join Dr. Donna Curtin at 1 p.m. Saturday, June 6, as she leads a free tour of Burial Hill on the topic “The French Connection: The LeBarons of Plymouth,” examining the family sage of early French immigrant Dr. Francis LeBaron and his descendants.
Each year through 2020, the Plymouth Antiquarian Society will present “Burial Hill: History in Progress,” a series of history expeditions on Burial Hill, one of America’s oldest and most significant burying grounds. Free tours are offered at 1 p.m. the first Saturday of every month. Local historians and guides, including Stephen O’Neill and Joyce Poremski, join Antiquarian Society Executive Director Donna Curtin as tour leaders, sharing their individual expertise on a range of topics.
The tour will meet at the main Burial Hill stairway; no reservations are required. Participants may traverse steep and slippery slopes, so wear appropriate shoes. Severe weather may cancel the tour and updates will be posted on the Plymouth Antiquarian Society Facebook page.
