Courtesy Fillmore Historical Museum Our popular “history classes” are back from hiatus. “What’s in a Name” will kick off the fall session on September 17, at 7 pm. How did streets and landmarks get their names? Why is there a Guiberson Road but no Gerberding Street? There’s 7th Street, but what happened to streets 1 through 6? On October 17, “A Brief History of Bardsdale” will be presented by Museum Executive Director, Martha Gentry, whose family has lived in Bardsdale since early in the 20th century. This will be followed by “Churches of Piru” presented by Michele McKinley on November 21st. You will learn about the Rock Church, the church built by David Cook and other places of worship in the Piru, Camulos and Buckhorn areas. |
