SUMMARY:History Studio: A Home in Woods Hole with Elizabeth Sheehy
DESCRIPTION:A Home in Woods Hole with Elizabeth Sheehy\nApril 2\, 2025\n7:00-8:30pm \nWalter Nickerson and Helena Nugent built a house in Woods Hole more than a hundred years ago. Though their descendants spread out across New England\, they kept returning to the house on Eel Pond\, which survived the 1938 New England Hurricane and also served as a boarding house for many years. \nFor our third installment in the History Studio series on authors and publishing in Massachusetts history\, join us for a conversation with Elizabeth Sheehy. We will be talking about the making and publishing of A Home in Woods Hole: Life and History on Eel Pond published by The History Press in 2024\,  in which she chronicles the history of Woods Hole through the lens of a house and the family that built it. Find out more about how history gets published! \nRegistration is free – but if you’re able to donate to help us continue to offer programming like this\, it’s much appreciated! REGISTER HERE. \n  \n  \nWe will do our best to monitor your questions and comments during the conversation. A recording will be publicly available in the Conversations on the Commons Archive. This Conversation will be livestreamed on our YouTube channel. Questions? Email commons@masshistoryalliance.org \n  \nAbout our speaker: \nAfter the serendipitous purchase of a grand old house in Woods Hole in 2018\, Elizabeth Sheehy turned to writing full-time to tell the story of people she met through the house\, long dead and nearly forgotten. Retired from her career as a retail executive\, Sheehy put her Trinity College history degree to work to uncover the fascinating lives of the Nickersons and the Nugents from one hundred years ago. A lifelong writer and lover of puzzles and mysteries\, Sheehy grew up in California with English parents who passed down to her their passion for history. She and her husband split their time between Arlington\, Virginia and Woods Hole. \n\nConversations on the Commons Where people from Massachusetts history organizations get to vent\, empathize\, laugh\, complain\, think\, collaborate\, brainstorm\, plan\, and in general be up to no good.
