We are delighted to share a holiday gift suggestion. You have a friend or relative that loves history or one from the Jackson Purchase who has moved away. Connect them with Jackson Purchase History through a gift membership. They will receive the award-winning Journal and invitations to all our meetings, which will be on Zoom even after we are able to resume in person meetings. See: https://jacksonpurchasehistoricalsociety.org/become-a-member/ for the details. Best wishes for Thanksgiving, Christmas, Chanukah, and the New Year. Let’s hope 2021 is not as “interesting” as 2020 has been.
