Rounding out our fabulous fall programs is local resident and Lebanon Town Militia member Patty Bowen, performing her interactive show on 18th century colonial midwifery. Reliving the life of Midwife Bowen, she will talk about who and what a midwife was in the early colonies, and how the community typically relied on midwives (rather than doctors) for their health needs. Patty will appear in replica 18th century clothing, and will have a number of artifacts on display at the meeting, including a birthing chair.  Mark your calendars for Wednesday, November 19, 7:30 p.m., Old Town Hall, and learn more about this fascinating part of our history!
