In the early years of the 19th century, scores of New Englanders packed their wagons and journeyed west, spurred by hopes and dreams of opportunities promised by a fresh landscape that appeared reassuringly familiar. The intersections, as well as the disparities, between what these pioneers envisioned this northeastern Ohio frontier to be and the realities of their lives, particularly for women, provide insight on the spirit of post-revolution Americans, their restless compulsion to possess a wilderness, and the creation of the communities in which we now live.
Thanks to Bari from the South Newbury Union Chapel for leading this program.
