Indigenous History Walk & Talk

Saturday, September 27, 2025 @ 10:00 AM

The Historical Society of Old Yarmouth invites you to join Nipmuc-Wampanoag, Waban Webquish (Marcus Hendricks), and local historian, Bob Kelley, on this guided, one-mile, Native American Talk/Walk program along HSOY’s Thacher Trail. Discussions will range from the Woodland Period through 200 years after the Contact Period, and cover such topics as hunting, fishing, domestic life, and local Native American, Thomas Greenough – one of the last “Praying Indians” to live here at Yarmouth. The walk will begin at the Shade Arbor in the meadow by Kelley Chapel.
