In collaboration with Kennebec County historical societies, Maine State agencies, local libraries, local governments, and individuals interested in the history of Kennebec County, the Lost Trotting Parks Heritage Center has launched a new blog titled, 19th Century Kennebec County.
The purpose of this project will be to re-create 19th century Kennebec County through engraved images, photographs, maps, and excerpts from Maine Registers and 19th century atlases. Currently, the blog consists of maps of each Kennebec County town/city and as a start images of Augusta.
Hopefully, the blog will capture the signature imagery of each town. As the project progress, storyboards will be created that will show the Yesterday and Today of each town.
If you are interested in working on this project, contact Stephen D. Thompson.
