Jayne Darcy January 7, 2019 Comments Off on Historic Horseneck Beach Photographs to be Presented

Westport Historical Society will host “a visual walk down old Horseneck Beach” at Westport Public Library from 2:00 to 3:30 p.m. on Saturday, January 12.

Presented by postcard collector David Jones, the talk features a newly discovered collection of historic photographs by music teacher and photographer Clarence Williston, a summer resident of East Beach.

“This program will provide an opportunity to view rarely seen images of East Beach and to rediscover the history of a community that was wiped out by the hurricane of 1938,” according to the society.

The snow date is Saturday, January 19.  The suggested donation is $5.
