The Tewksbury Historical Society and the Tewksbury Congregational Church are celebrating 275 years of Tewksbury being Tewksbury. An exhibit of Tewksbury History will be set up in the church basement and families will use it as a base to each a Ham and Bean lunch and then go out into Tewksbury.

The Society will talk about the different zones of history and families will be given a guide to historical locations to find out what they can about Tewksbury's past. One example will be to take a list of Revolutionary Militia Men who fought on April 19, 1775 and see if they can find any of them buried in old cementeries.

Families will be prepped at the luncheon to understand what part of town they want to investigate.
