DALTON HISTORICAL SOCIETY Dalton, New Hampshire
Friends and neighbors enjoyed an
evening with Jeff Warner on Saturday,
June 26th at the old Dalton Town Hall.
Mr. Warner entertained with "pocket
instruments" like spoons and dancing
puppets, banjo, concertina and other folk
instruments. He involved the audience
by providing everyone with a set of
spoons and we accompanied him during
evening with Jeff Warner on Saturday,
June 26th at the old Dalton Town Hall.

| THE DALTON TOWN SQUARE FAIR, HELD ON JULY 24, 2010, brought a lot of visitors to the Historical Society's new display area in the old Town Hall. Everyone enjoyed viewing a computer slide show of old photos from town. Our slide shows are always a conversation-starter, as residents and former residents reminisce about the past. Scrapbooks and photo albums were on display, as well as a notebook with a list of gravestones in the cemeteries in Dalton, and some surrounding towns. The Historical Society had a table at the flea market, as well as a few items for sale in our display area, including note cards, magnets, and our NEW DALTON T-SHIRTS!
