LEBANON TOWNSHIP MUSEUM - NATIVE AMERICAN HERITAGE MONTH STUDENT EXHIBIT
Suzette Dilzer’s 7th grade social studies classes at the Woodglen School have been researching Native American history with a focus on the intent and impact of Indian residential schools in our country. Curator Gina Sampaio presented an interactive program on the aspect of forced assimilation at these schools to the students on Orange Shirt day, a day set aside to honor and remember residential school survivors on September 30th.
During the presentation, students were asked to point to gibberish letters to get new made-up names. They heard an excerpt from Luther Standing Bear’s memoir in which he describes how that was how he got the name “Luther” when he first arrived at the Carlisle Indian School.
In October, the students continued their research before embarking on the cross-disciplinary project of writing perspective poetry in response to what they’d learned. Some wrote from the point of view of the residential school teachers, wanting to “help” the native students by forcing them to assimilate to the dominant European culture. Others imagined themselves in the place of these Indigenous children, many of whom were the same age as the Woodglen students upon arrival to the residential schools, and wrote of their concerns and fears.
The poems have been transcribed onto decorative posters which will adorn the walls of the museum for all of November, which is Native American Heritage Month. Also on display will be books and photos from the Carlisle Indian Residential school, which sent thirty-four students to Lebanon Township to live with families, work on their farms and sometimes attend school right here in the museum (which was the former New Hampton schoolhouse). Antique school supplies, the kinds of items students would have used in the early 1900s, will fill the downstairs display case.
Visitors are also welcome to visit the second floor of the museum where they can find stone tools, pottery sherds andother artifacts from the Plenge site, which is one of the most significant Paleo-Indian sites in the Northeast. The majority of the Plenge site 14,000+ artifacts are owned by the Smithsonian, so it is notable that our township museum also has a small collection of them

WALKING TOUR OF RINGOES
Take a walking tour of downtown Ringoes and discover its rich history. Our tour guide is Dave Harding, former Hunterdon County Historical Society trustee, founding member of the East Amwell Historical Society, and author of a self-guided walking tour of Ringoes. Dave will tell us about John Ringo’s arrival in the early 1700s where he became a reluctant tavern owner, and discuss the legend of his buried treasure. We'll learn about the Sons of Liberty meeting at the tavern of “the second” John Ringo, an ardent patriot who hung a portrait of George Washington outside his establishment (unless the British were passing through!). We’ll swing past the Henry Landis House where the Marquis de LaFayette convalesced after falling ill, and we’ll talk about the local doctor who rushed to his aid. Speaking of doctors, we’ll also tell you all about Dr. Mary Tidd Bennett, the town’s rare 1800s female physician, and we’ll stand beside the home and publishing house of Dr. Cornelius Larison, and discuss this physician, teacher, publisher, author, interviewer of ex-slave Sylvia DuBois and advocate of phonetic spelling. We’ll also learn about the impact of the railroad on the community and what the village looked like a century ago. Join us to learn about the fascinating, historic hamlet.

A SAMPLING OF HUNTERDON COUNTY NEEDLEWORK WIHT MARTY CAMPANELLI, INDEPENDENT TEXTILE SCHOLAR
As a fairly rural farming community in the late 1700s and early 1800s, Hunterdon County, New Jersey was surprisingly home to a number of diverse sampler groups. Join Marty Campanelli as she takes you on a tour of the County's various sampler styles including the now recognized 'collared deer' school, Eliza Rue's School in Pennington, the 'Redington' School, and the 'Hunterdon House & Heart' samplers taught by instructresses Amy and Elizabeth Lundy. New research on these groups, the instructresses who taught the designs, and a selection of sampler maker's life stories will round out the lecture. Marty's detective work also will show how some of the designs came to Hunterdon and where they migrated to afterwards. - $20 - Virtual Via ZOOM - visit: Schwenkfelder Library and Heritage Center for more information
