Snow Day! ☃️
Thank you to Mike Szilagyi, author of “Images of Rail: Montgomery County Trolleys” for sharing with the local history of the trolley lines and photographs from his recent book this evening.
#2 in the 2018-2019 OYRHS lecture series getting underway.
HAPPY HALLOWEEN! Can you believe its already the end of October? It has been nothing but treats at Old York Road Historical Society this month. One such treat was the donation by Cooke's great-grandson of a personal ledger of Jay Cooke. Presented to the Society following the Oct. 10th lecture on Jay Cooke by Dr. Tom Wieckowski, the “diary” is approximately 40 handwritten pages of Cooke’s experiences and recollections while at his home “Ogontz”.
Had a great time on the fall field trip at the American Swedish Historical Museum today. Thank you to Tracey Beck for the wonderful tour! @americanswedish
Join us for the first lecture in our 2018-2019 lecture series, next Wednesday October 10th at 7:30, Homestead Hall, Episcopal Church of Our Saviour, Jenkintown
