The Clinton County Historical Association Lecture Series Presents: Relics of War By Peter Sorrell
Monday, August 16, 6:30 pm at the Plattsburgh House of Prayer, 63 Broad Street, Plattsburgh
Peter Sorrell, a Lyon Mountain native and area historian, will discuss his pursuit of War of 1812 artifacts through his metal detecting in the North Country and the related research into his finds.
He will share some of the methods and resources he’s used in his quest to rediscover history as well as show some of the artifacts that he’s recovered.
His hobby has taken him to twelve states and two countries. He is currently the co-owner and organizer of one of the largest metal detecting events in the United States, DIGSTOCK, which will be taking place from October 8th to 11th in Chazy, NY.
This presentation is free and open to the public. For more information email director@clintoncountyhistorical.org or call 518-561-0340.
