Lectures and History

Presented by Kim Sanborn, Director of the Kittery Historical & Naval Museum

Kittery has over 130 cemeteries within the town limits. Many hold secrets and stories that should be shared. In this presentation, we will touch on several of the memorable ones. The stones give us hints of the past and of the lives that are buried beneath them.

In October of 2021, Kittery will begin celebration the 375th Incorporation of the town. Last year for Maine's Bicentennial, we published a 16 page booklet about our history since it became the first town in Maine. This presentation is a concise overview of that booklet. We will be discussing the Colonial Times, Age of Sail, Gilded Age, Modern Era and Kittery Today. Everyone attending will receive a copy of "A Brief History of Kittery".
