John, I thought it was in "Our Westfield" book, but couldn't find it. Maybe I saw it in pictures Jim Peyton brought to the museum.

As always, if you want to donate any items or pictures (original or just scanned copies for our usage) to th…

Transition of wwhs.us
We started our process yesterday to move fully to this website hosted at ning.com to replace our old existing website that was hosted at rootsweb.com.
If you aren't familiar with web stuff - you don't care about those internals anyway, but it will enable us to be more interactive with you - the community. More officers and volunteers can post events and text online without one person having to do web development for it.
Our program officer can post events themselves and everything should be mo… Continue

- Hi Michael,
Its a wonderful thing you are doing, preserving the history of the area, and sharing information.
I grew up in that area(first 20 years) but am now living in New Hampshire.
I love that area, and consider it home.
I will be in area soon, as I travel alot for work. Would love to make time to visit musuem and talk with you further.
I grew up with the Becker Family. Eric, Bart, Mike and sister. Anything Eric Becker says is a good thing, I want to get involved, an help out.
I will be making a donation in the near future. Keep up the good work.
Take care and Best Regards!

Tom Huckstep said… - Michael, I live in the Timberbrook Run neighborhood of Westfield. Have lived in Westfield since 1986. Served one term on the Town Council, 1991-95. Have always been interested in history; read the Our Westfield book for the first time almost 20 years ago. Just decided to get a little deeper into Westfield history now. Hope to become more involved in the next year or so as I finish some major responsibilities in church leadership.
