Description

When leaders of the fledgling Plymouth Colony made the painful decision to split the colony in 1644, they designated Eastham as the center of new settlement. The 1980 archeological investigation at the Doane family homestead was reexamined last July by the University of Michigan. Join Historian Bill Burke to hear about the findings. Meet at Doane Rock Picnic Area, Eastham.
