In the talk he will take you back to the 18th Century as he follows the footsteps of surveyor Nathaniel Austin of Sheffield. Thomas will explain and unravel the notorious 1764 road survey through Otis and Sandisfield that many historians have studied. This talk is in-person and registration is required via the Museum website. There is a limited amount of seating, so no walk-ins please. A small number of parking spaces are available at the Library and parking is also available behind the Monterey Town Hall, just a few doors down from the library. Email: 0 Website: http://0
