Not so good news: our furnace is dead. While we’ve been lucky that the weather has been so warm, winter is fast approaching and we will have no heat.
We’re using gofundme.com, a crowdfunding site, to raise money for a new furnace, estimated to cost around $6,000. Please consider donating. if you are unable to donate, please share the link via social media-these sites work on a snowball effect, so the more people who see the page, the better. Thanks!
I’m pleased to announce that the Allenstown Public Library has been award a Moose Conservation License Plate grant of $8,745! With these funds we will preserve and digitize 21 volumes of Allenstown tax registers dated 1860-1889, making them available for public use. These volumes will be a great genealogy resource. We should be able to begin work on these volumes in January. Watch for news of our new companion website, Allenstown Digital History, in 2014!
