Marion’s lost stone tablet comes home
WAREHAM – It’s hard not to imagine that Marion would be pleased.
Marion Pierce Carter died September 9, 1946 at 81 and is buried next to her husband, Miles, in the Woodlawn Cemetery in Attleboro.
She was an avid genealogist and founder of the Attleboro Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution in 1901. It’s one of the nation’s oldest chapters. The DAR was founded in 1890.
One of the first official acts of the brand-new chapter was to buy the historic “Peck House” in Attleboro, built in 1723.
The chapter voted in January, 1902, to repair and establish the Peck House as its permanent home.
Letter to the Editor: Giving thanks for support of community support programs
The Alliance Review
To the Editor:
The HARCATUS Family Support office in Carrollton would like to extend its sincere gratitude to Dollar Tree for its very generous support in 2020. Its donations made our Back-to-School and Holiday Give-a-Way/toy drive a huge success and helped many Carroll County families. We truly appreciate their support.
A special thank you to St. Francis Xavier Church, St. Gabriel Church and Church of Christ Christian Disciples for their support throughout the years.
We have accomplished so much by simply bringing smiles to worried faces and made the quality of life better for families that have fallen on hard times. Not every adult that comes to our office qualifies for the programs we offer, but no one in need is turned away when it comes to the holidays. We have a little of everything in our Community Clothing Closet, something for adults/children of all ages and interests
