[MassHistPres] Seeking Input: Municipal Responses to Tercentenary Markers

[Sullivan, Charles M.]

The official Tercentenary Commission markers installed in the 1930s belong to MassDOT, which has a cultural resources person to deal with them. Contact your District Engineer to start with; they don't belong to the town.

Hello,

I'm a member of the Sudbury Historical Commission, and at the request of our Select Board, we are initiating additional discussion regarding the 5 tercentenary markers in Sudbury that are largely focused on certain local events during King Philip's War.  I'd greatly appreciate your feedback on how your municipality is addressing these markers, including (1.) any feedback on work to build consensus with stakeholders towards a solution, and (2.) looking forward, how your community has rethought how its local history should be presented and interpreted.

Thank you in advance for your thoughts.

Michael Wallace
