Description

Calendar event imageResearching the History of Your House with the City of Cambridge

Join staff members from the Cambridge Historical Commission, the City of Cambridge Department of Public Works and the Cambridge Room at the Cambridge Public Library for a three-week series on researching the history of your house or building.

Registration is mandatory and space is limited; you do not have to attend all three sessions (though we highly recommend it!). For your convenience, each department will offer two days of the same session - one in the evening and one in the afternoon.

To register for a session, please contact the person listed. Looking forward to seeing you there!

Session 1: The Cambridge Room at the Cambridge Public Library
This hour-long, hands-on workshop will guide you through a variety of online resources that will help you research your home from the comfort of your home. Discover when your building was built and by whom.  Find out who lived in your house and how your neighborhood has changed.  We will provide laptops.  Registration is mandatory.
