I know there are many history buffs on the forum who are interested in local history and enjoy learning (or remembering) what the Lakes Region was like “back in the day.” The Laconia Historical and Museum Society has recently published a book on the Black Brook section of Laconia (Lakeport) which is currently on sale through their website. It contains over a hundred photos, some dating back to the 1900s. It also contains narratives written from researching deeds and talking to older residents who lived or worked there over the years. If you are interested in learning more about the Black Brook Book and possibly obtaining a copy, you may do so by going to the Laconia Historical and Museum Society website using the link below. It is a chance to learn more about those who came before us, as well as helping the Historical Society with their goal of preserving a bit of history for future generations.
