Historic Markers for 18th and 19th Century Houses In the early days of The Historical
Society,
plaques were available to mark early houses of the area. The Museum
Committee has developed a process to again make plaques available for
marking houses, churches, schools, and other structures if the
date of 1900 and earlier can be substantiated—1900 is considered the
last year of the 19th Century. The design and
manufacture of the
plaques was administered by The Rev. Robert Meschke, and produced
by Warren Mangan of W. D. Pattern Co., Trappe. Cast in aluminum, they
bear the inscription
"Historic Site,
Historical Society of Trappe, Collegeville, Perkiomen Valley," centered
in the form of
a shield. Press here to see pictures of local Historical Sites where plaques are displayed. Press here for other local and historical pictures. Press here to view and print the forms needed to apply for the plaque, Questions? Contact Bob Meschke, Project Coordinator, at bobmeschke@verizon.net. |
