The afternoon session of the Nutfield Founders Weekend Conference and Family Reunion

Celebrating Nutfield's 300th anniversary was a lot of fun, and there was much information shared by all the participants.  The afternoon session was well attended with the conference and reunion attendees, and many drop in members of the public who came over to see the genealogy exhibits and ask questions!  The query board was full of cards filled out by descendants seeking more information on their ancestors (these will be posted online).  The speakers will put their handouts and power point presentations online, as well. 

The public was given guided tours of the renovations ongoing
at the East Derry First Parish Meetinghouse

The current state of the steeple (it has been reconstructed next
to the church tower, and will be lifted up in place in May).
