1887: CHAMBERSBURG; THE EARLY YEARS

I have a HUGE number (and growing each and every day) of files in the "AMERICAN-ITALIAN"* AND "CHAMBERSBURG" folders. With the lack of activity at the Kuser Mansion, I am currently working on obtaining time in the meeting rooms in order to share local history programs with lectures and on screen presentations. One of the programs of which I am quite proud is an on-screen presentation entitled,
"CHAMBERSBURG; a thumbnail sketch of the Italian experience....."
With the unfortunate societal changes and the exodus of many old line Chambersburg families, the history of that great old borough has, and will be the subject of many more folders dealing with "the Burg," and the Italians who made it what it was.
