 One of the most incredible resources at the Sylvan Street Museum is the Noank Historical Society’s oral history collection.  The collection includes dozens of interviews and recordings from a generation of Noankers who are no longer with us, sharing their memories of Noank from days gone by.  Join us on March 19 to hear selections from this collection including stories about the village’s lawless 4th of July celebrations, the 1938 Hurricane, childhood on the waterfront, Noank’s shipyards and various Noank characters from Capt. Ben Rathbun, Walter Davis, Bernie Davis, Albert Patterson and Walter Palmer.
