ANOTHER SUCCESSFUL COMMUNITY ARCHIVE GATHERING AT SATURDAY'S BILLERICAY LIBRARY

This special annual Saturday in October is always fun and a chance to meet other local folk connected with our very special little Essex town. 

I especially enjoyed learning more about the latest acquisitions from the Essex Record Office via Vicky who gave a fascinating talk about the founding of the ERO, with spectacular documents dating from one thousand years ago. We enjoyed some great talks from local history enthusiasts, particularly from one of our own members linked to the history of our sister town of Billerica in Massachusetts US. It was a fascinating day and we learned so much about Billericay's past.
