Public Meeting Announced
Historic Wallingford is hosting a public meeting to discuss the development of a National Register of Historic Places nomination and the use of historical census data for a residential historic district in north Wallingford.
Date: Tuesday, Oct. 12, 2021
Time: 7 PM
Where: Virtual, via Zoom
FREE, registration required
The purpose of the meeting is to discuss the National Register process and what designation means for property owners, and to present early findings of historical census research. An in-depth analysis of census data will be used to reveal a richer story of the ethnic roots and occupations of early Wallingford residents. A second public meeting to unveil the nomination is planned for later this year.
