New Published Research Story in the November 2019 Issue of Maine Antique Digest - The 1791-1890 Industry in North Yarmouth, Maine

For those of you who do not already know, a research story I wrote about the 1791-1890 red earthenware industry in North Yarmouth, Maine is now available in the November 2019 issue of Maine Antique Digest. This story would not have been possible without Chris Havey, who saved so much of the archaeology from this industry when the area was being developed in the 1990s. I truly believe that more pottery was produced in North Yarmouth than any other location in the state, and much of this production has been overlooked, especially in publication. However, the preservation efforts of Chris have really created a story about this industry that was not previously possible to write, and this may account for why some past authors only included a small amount of information about this industry in their publications.

I am really excited to see this story in print since it is a subject that I have worked on with Chris for about four years; there is a lot of archaeology included in this story, as well as surviving wares. This is a story about the North Yarmouth industry like none other previously published. There was also a preview story written about this article published in the Yarmouth, Maine Historical Society's fall 2019 newsletter.
