Vaughan homestead topic of Cary Library’s Williams House program

WAYNE — Jeff Wainoris will lead a program on the history of the Vaughan homestead 4 p.m. Sunday, March 31, at the Cary Library’s Williams House, 14 Old Winthrop Road.

Wainoris, curator and docent for the 1794 Vaughan homestead, will give an illustrated talk on the history of the Vaughans and their home. The program will be followed by a reception featuring wine, hors d’oeuvres and desserts.
In the 1790s, the Vaughan family built a home on land stretching from the Kennebec River in Hallowell to the shores of Cobbossee Lake. Seven generations of Vaughans lived there. Wainoris will demonstrate in fascinating detail how the homestead and the collection within reveal a vibrant history of the Vaughans and their participation in the history of Maine and the United States.
The program is free and open to the public. For more information call 207-685-3612.
