Old-Fashion Christmas at Lindley House

PAOLI – Orange County Historical Society hosted its annual Old-Fashioned Christmas at the Farmhouse on Sunday afternoon. 

The historic Thomas Elwood Lindley House was decorated in part to reflect an 1860s Civil War era Christmas past. 

Attendees were allowed to informally tour the farmhouse while being treated to period holiday music performed by the “Wildflowers & Weeds.” 

Museum volunteers served up cookies and cups of hot cider in the farmhouse kitchen. 

The event was well attended with visitors from throughout the area in attendance.   

Authors Roger Moon and Ron Prosser were also on-site with copies of their brand-new book
on sale, “Visions of Home.”

Prosser and Moon presented the Orange County Historical Society with a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the books. Accepting the check for $1,440 was Robert F. Henderson, president of the historical society, and Carolyn Clements, historical society treasurer.
