The History of Fairfax Station from the Early Days to 1900 March 29, 2010

After a very brief business meeting, the key note speaker for our annual meeting will be John Murphy, local historian, re-enactor and train station board member. He will be discussing the "History of Fairfax Station from the Early Days to 1900". He will discuss the evolution of this area - from its very rural isolated beginnings prior to the Civil War, include confrontations here during the war and reconstruction, and subsequent expansion in this area in the later part of the 19th Century. Take a step back in time and learn something of the history of this area as Mr. Murphy presents many very interesting facets on the locals, their activities, the area landmarks and St. Mary's Church.
FREE. DONATIONS WELCOME.
