On Tuesday, June 5th Anthony M. Sammarco will present the final lecture of a three part series on the history and development of Milton. This lecture is “Milton Neighborhoods: People & Places.”

Sammarco will focus on the Milton we know today, describing how the different neighborhoods developed as well as the people and families who helped shape its future.

As he outlined in the previous two illustrated slide lectures, Milton had been established in 1662 and would remain primarily an agrarian town for the next two centuries. Milton Village had been the industrial and commercial area of the town, and in 1825 the Granite Railway Company, established to transport granite from Quincy to Charlestown to build the Bunker Hill Monument, transformed Railway Village to present day East Milton Square.

This third and final lecture will be co-sponsored by the Milton 350th Anniversary Committee and the Forbes House Museum, the free program takes place from 7 p.m.-8 p.m. in the Keys Community Room of the Milton Public Library, 476 Canton Avenue, Milton.

Sammarco is the author of more than sixty popular books on the history of Boston and its surrounding cities and towns, including Milton, Milton Then & Now, Milton Architecture and Milton: A Compendium.
