Join us on Thursday, January 30th to learn from Dave Probert about his restoration and conservation work in historic cemeteries. After he retired from a long career at Bath Iron Works, Lincoln County Historical Association was fortunate to have Dave sign up as a volunteer. Initially, Dave helped with the Pownalborough Court House trail system before beginning to work in our historic cemetery, then becoming a museum docent, co-chair of the Pownalborough Court House Stewardship Committee, and a valued Trustee helping to steer the organization.

Dave’s hours spent in historic cemeteries, conserving one stone at a time, have yielded fascinating stories about how he approaches the work and what he learns along the way. Join us for this glimpse into the past through the restoration and conservation of ancient burial grounds with Dave on January 30, 2025 at 5:30 pm. This lecture is free and open to all.
