On Sunday, Nov. 3 the Mattapoisett Museum will host five University of Massachusetts Dartmouth students to present on historical topics.
The talks will provide a “next-generation” view of what young historical scholars study. They will take place from 2 to 3:30 p.m.
Jacob Hunsinger will talk on “Switchback and the 9 fingered kids: Pennsylvania coal mines and labor.” Jared Fredette will discuss a “Sticking it to Bomber Command: Britain’s irregular warfare unit.” Sarah Murphy will explore religious themes in her talk, “Calvin, Predestination, and why it worked.” Zack Wedge will tell the audience about “The refinery of the Vikings,” and Mattapoisett’s Abigail Field will explain that “No, not everyone was a flapper: What we actually wore in the 1920s”
