SUMMARY:Free and Open to the Public: Explore Historic Lake Ontario Shipwrecks and Maritime Heritage - April 8
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Wednesday\, April 8th at 7pm! Ben Ioset\, Maritime Archaeologist\, will present a program on April 8th at Gates Hall that explores Lake Ontario\, its marine heritage\, and historic shipwrecks. \nIn May 2025\, NOAA and its partners at the Ocean Exploration Cooperative Institute surveyed deep water shipwrecks within the Lake Ontario National Marine Sanctuary (LONMS). The expedition documented numerous pristinely preserved shipwrecks dating from 1816 to 1927. In his presentation\, Ioset will discuss the expedition\, its objectives\, and several of the shipwrecks that were explored\, and he looks forward to sharing discoveries made during the trip expedition with attendees at the April 8th program in Pultneyville. \nWith the St. Peter Shipwreck just two miles east of Pultneyville\, W-PHS is excited to reside within the LONMS and to also feature an exhibit of its artifacts recovered by Deep Star Enterprises in its History & Heritage Warehouse.  Nanette Peters Hance\, President of W-PHS shares that the historical society is excited about the opportunities the sanctuary offers for research\, community engagement\, education and outreach activities\, as well as the maritime heritage related tourism it will bring to the region. \nBen Ioset\, archaeologist with the National Marine Sanctuary Foundation in support of NOAA’s LONMS\, received his PH.D. in Anthropology with a specialization in nautical archaeology from Texas A&M University in 2021. His research focuses on the maritime history and heritage of the Great Lakes\, and in particular\, Lake Ontario\, historic wooden shipbuilding\, and historic preservation. \nView Press Release

SUMMARY:Nov 5th Annual Meeting Information
DESCRIPTION:The Annual Meeting of the Williamson-Pultneyville Historical Society (W-PHS) will be held Wednesday\, November 5\, 2025\, at 6 pm in the Pultneyville Masonic Lodge No. 159 Dining Room at 4035 Lake Road\, Pultneyville\, NY. \nThe meeting will include a by-reservation dinner at 6 pm followed by the Annual Meeting at 7 pm at which time there will be a brief program presented by Lodge Member\, Craig DeNagel\, about the original Union Church (now Gates Hall) Cornerstone which was laid by the Masonic Lodge. \nThe meeting will also include an update by Board Trustee\, James Ryan\, regarding the recent W-PHS Property Transfer\, the election of officers and a vote on proposed revisions to the W-PHS ByLaws. \nThe Slate of Candidates includes incumbent\, Nanette P. Hance\, for re-election to the office of President for a two-year term.  Hance has successfully led W-PHS through several challenging years since the pandemic and the aftermath of COVID\, which has had a profound impact on all 501(c)(3) volunteer organizations. In her tenure as Vice President and President\, she has navigated change including the Board’s difficult\, but unanimous\, decision to divest W-PHS of its Mill Street property which had been the society’s home since 1996. With concern for ensuring fiscally responsible decisions which are in the best interest of the society\, community\, and future generations\, W-PHS believes it can better serve its members\, the community \,and heritage tourism visitors in a larger venue with a better traffic flow conducive to ensuring more comprehensive exhibits and engaging experiences. \nThe Slate of Candidates also includes James Ryan for election to the Office of Director of Development for a two-year term. Jim joined the Board of Trustees in January 2025\, and his expertise and counsel have proven to be invaluable to W-PHS.  Born and raised in Williamson\, Jim and Jennifer Fisher Ryan adopted two children from Wayne County foster care: Jonathan\, 17 (12th grade) and Emelie\, 10 (6th grade).  A member of the Williamson Central School District graduating Class of 1991\, Jim is also a graduate of St. John Fisher University (B.A.)\, Vermont Law School (J.D.) and Boston University (LL.M.). After working as a tax attorney in a boutique law firm outside of NYC for a number of years\, he accepted a job at Bausch + Lomb\, and returned to Williamson in 2007.  After B+L’s acquisition by Valeant Pharmaceuticals in 2013\, Jim accepted a position with Dynalec Corporation in Sodus\, NY\, where he currently serves legal and contractual in-house needs. \nPlease note that in accordance with the By-Laws\, nominations from the floor by members present and in good standing may be accepted. \nProposed revisions to the By-Laws that have been emailed to members will also be presented to the general membership for approval by members present and in good standing at the Annual Meeting at which one vote per membership is allowed.

SUMMARY:Too Brave a Man to Live: The Life & Death of Col. Eliakim Sherrill\, an American Civil War Soldier
DESCRIPTION:Sept. 3\, 2025\, 7:00 pm\nGates Hall\, 4107 Lake Road\, Pultneyville\, NY \nAs the new school year begins\, the Williamson-Pultneyville Historical Society (W-PHS)  will step back in time as its program season begins with a Civil War Program. The title of David Malgee’s captivating presentation at the September 3rd (W-PHS) Program is “Too Brave a Man to Live: The life and death of Col. Eliakim Sherrill\, an area American Civil War soldier.” \nAlthough Sherrill was a humble tanner\, farmer and hometown hero of note\, he was also a U.S. Congressman\, New York State Senator and Colonel of the 126th New York Infantry. While mortally wounded at Gettysburg\, he remains something of a footnote in history. Malgee will speak on Sherrill’s private and public life\, as well as his short military career\, which ended at Gettysburg on July 4\, 1863. \nSherrill was a resident of Geneva\, NY at the time of his death. During his 12-month tenure in the army\, he was seriously wounded in the face yet returned to command his regiment only to be placed in command of the Union brigade known as the “Harper’s Ferry Cowards.”  Sherrill was placed under arrest by General Hancock on July 2\, at Gettysburg\, and restored to brigade command just in time to be mortally wounded during Pickett’s Charge. \nMalgee\, a noted\, respected Civil War authority and collector will also display a number of Col. Sherrill’s personal items at the September 3rd program\, including his uniform\, saddle blanket and various accoutrements that he wore during the Gettysburg Campaign. Mr. Malgee been heavily involved with history and historic preservation with such groups as The Gettysburg Foundation\, American Battlefield Trust\, National Museum of Civil War Medicine and Adams County Historical Society. \nThis W-PHS program is free and open to the public. Donations are appreciated.

SUMMARY:Hamlinks of Wayne County & One Man’s Approach to Telling his Family’s Story
DESCRIPTION:A WPHS Program Presented by Robert Hamlink Ring\, Ph.D.\nMay 7\, 2025\, 7 pm\nGates Hall\, 4107 Lake Road\, Pultneyville\, NY\nIt all began almost a year and a half ago with a modest website inquiry for information about a family known to have resided at one time in the Williamson and Wayne County area. Since that time\, Rob Ring has left no stone unturned\, and no clue unresearched\, while putting together the puzzle of his family’s history. Beginning with oral histories and tracing ancestors from Holland to the U. S. here in Pikkleville (East Williamson)\, he has unearthed many local ties to our community. Based on his research\, Rob has skillfully woven together a tapestry of his multi-generational family with the aid of visits\, interviews\, and research tools which he will share. Mark your calendars for Wednesday\, May 7th\,and join W-PHS for this engaging presentation about one man’s approach to building out his family’s story . . . a true labor of love which one day will be a special gift for his children. \nWhile donations are accepted\, this program is free and open to the public. \nAlong with his personal passion for tracing his family’s roots and Dutch connections\, which he will share on May 7th\, research has always been an integral part of Mr. Ring’s career. \nDr. Robert Ring is CEO of Kaerus Bioscience\, a clinical-stage biotech working to develop treatments for individuals with Fragile X syndrome\, the most common inherited cause of autism and intellectual disability globally. A neuroscientist by training\, Dr Ring is a globally-recognized expert in neurodevelopmental disorders with over 25 years of experience in CNS medicines research and development spanning a unique arc of leadership positions in industry\, governmental agencies\, and non-profit research foundations.

SUMMARY:A Tea Out of Time
DESCRIPTION:“A Tea Out of Time” is a historical play written by Larry Ann Evans and Linda Stevenson\, originally produced in 2017 to commemorate the 100th anniversary of women’s suffrage in New York State. The plot centers on sixteen women from various eras of Wayne County’s past\, who receive a mysterious invitation to a tea party. As they gather\, they gradually realize they are from different periods in history\, leading to intriguing conversations about their lives and times. The play humorously and poignantly explores how women from different centuries might interact\, especially as they await the arrival of Susan B. Anthony\, the guest of honor. The 2024 performance will be staged at Gates Hall in Pultneyville on November 1 and 3\, with proceeds benefiting the Wayne County Historical Society and the Williamson-Pultneyville Historical Society.\nPurchase November 1st  Tickets\nTICKETS ARE PRICED FOR MEMBERS AND NON-MEMBERS OF BOTH WAYNE COUNTY HISTORICAL SOCIETY AND WILLIAMSON-PULTNEYVILLE HISTORICAL SOCIETY.
