My first term as President has been a whirl wind of activity on many fronts. We presented two major exhibits, Hats Off to Manchester and Manchester and the Path to the Presidency which brought worldwide attention to the Millyard Museum. And, we broke our record in attendance and income at our 27th Historic Preservation Awards.

As a result of focused efforts on the grant front, we received several grants which have allowed us to accomplish much needed work and necessary repairs with the Millyard Museum, Research Center and off-site storage including: ➢ Moving our off-site collections from 150 Dow Street to new storage - a significant effort and costly. Thanks to a grant from the Cogswell Benevolent Trust all costs were covered. ➢ The restoration and repair of windows at our Amherst Street Research Center (will be completed shortly) thanks to a grant from the Hunt Foundation which also funded new lighting and enhanced signage at both the Millyard Museum and Research Center. ➢ The Manchester Rotary, Queen City Rotary, and Amoskeag Industries once again provided generous grants so we can continue to provide Museum tours and programs to all of Manchester fourth-graders.

The events at the Museum continue to be very popular – this year alone, we hosted American Girl Doll Tea Parties (which sell out), book signings, walking tours, beer tastings, and off site events like Civil War Day at Victory Park and foliage viewing at Weston Observatory. The Museum continues to be a popular rental space for private parties, business meetings/retreats and all types of community meetings.

I’d like to express my heartfelt thanks to my fellow Trustees for their tireless dedication and support. We are saying good-bye to two members whose terms are at an end – Richard Duckoff and Jeffrey Myrdek. Their contributions have been invaluable and I’m happy to say they will continue to be involved at the committee level.

I also want to thank our superb fulltime staff who do so much with so little – John Clayton, Jeff Barraclough, Kristy Ellsworth and Dan Peters. They continue to amaze me with the magic they perform daily and I am grateful for the opportunity to work with them.

And, a big thank you to the volunteers, members, partners and supporters of the Manchester Historic Association for without you, the excitement wouldn’t happen. History is being made every day and as we begin our 124th year, we continue on with our mission of collecting, preserving and sharing the history of Manchester.

Colleen G. Kurlansky, President, Board of Trustees FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

Most of us operate on two different calendars. There’s the formal one that begins on January 1, but let’s be honest. Most of us have come to accept the world’s version of a sociological calendar. It starts in September when the kids go back to school.

For an institution that has been named “Best Educational Activity for Kids in ,” that is an important time of the year. It’s when we begin to employ the resources so generously provided to us by grantors such as Amoskeag Industries, the Queen City Rotary Club and the Manchester Rotary Club, whose combined gifts of $17,000 were specifically earmarked to fund field trips for fourth grade students in Manchester’s schools.

In spite of my advanced years, I can still recall the details of my own fourth grade field trip to the Manchester Historic Association, and it is my hope that our much-praised, interactive approach to history is nurturing the spark of imagination in the next generation of MHA supporters.

To be sure, our level of engagement is not limited to fourth graders. When the eyes of the nation turned to New Hampshire for our quadrennial First in the Nation Presidential Primary, we met that gaze with our extraordinary exhibit, “Manchester and the Path to the Presidency.” The scale and scope of the exhibit was recognized locally, nationally and internationally, winning acclaim in media outlets ranging from the Washington Post to C-SPAN, from NPR to the BBC.

That kind of acclaim, while flattering, is also fleeting. All the more reason, then, that our focus is on the local. How local? How about an actor-driven, sunset walking tour of Pine Grove Cemetery which, thanks to a collaborative effort with our friends at the Majestic Theater, dozens of MHA members were delighted to hear first-person narration from figures from Manchester’s past such as Frank Carpenter, Betty George and Nehemiah Bean.

That innovative approach to a tried-and-true formula may explain why we were recently named “Best History Museum in ” by Luxe Life Magazine – a high honor indeed – but I am just as thrilled to read the heartfelt, hand-written comments left by visitors in the guest book we maintain at the Millyard Museum.

Next time you’re in the museum, be sure to leave us a note!

Whatever style you prefer, hats have always played an important part in our lives. They cover our heads when it rains or snows, they signify a social group or profession we belong to, and most importantly, they complete an outfit. In the Exhibit “Hats Off to Manchester,” the Manchester Historic Association went deep into its collection to bring out a special collection of hats made, worn or bought in Manchester.

Hills, and Barton’s On Exhibit April 2, 2019 through August 1, 2019

Manchester and the Path to the Presidency Every four years, Manchester is visited by numerous presidential candidates, campaigning in the New Hampshire Primary. This exhibit showcased a chronological history of this process through images of candidates through the years as they engaged with Manchester voters in their homes, on the streets and in the many iconic watering holes that are the lifeblood of so many campaigns. We believe Manchester is the crucible of the Presidential Primary process in New Hampshire, and with this exhibit, we demonstrated the city’s pivotal role in American political history. On Exhibit October 2, 2019 through February 29, 2020 Gardner Room Dedication On September 20, 2019, the Manchester Historic Association dedicated the meeting room at the Amherst Street Research Center in honor of Donald Gardner. Gardner first joined the board of the MHA in 1990 and served as President from 1999 to 2003. As President, he oversaw a period of major growth of the organization, most notably the opening of the Millyard Museum in 2001. The MHA was pleased to honor Donald Gardner for his many contributions to the organization over the past three decades. Thank you, Don for your contribution towards collecting, preserving and sharing Manchester's history! Your support has helped a changing city retain its ties to the past.

Betty Lessard Archive Room

Betty Lessard President Colleen Kurlansky, Donald Gardner, MHA worked as the Association’s Librarian for nearly thirty years, from 1968 to 1997. During that time, she was the face of the MHA’s Research Library and assisted countless Executive Director John Clayton, and Susan Gardner researchers. The MHA was pleased that Betty’s family was able to attend the dedication as we honored Betty’s legacy.

Bean Foundation. This room, featuring newly installed archive shelving, now houses a collection of over 300 bound volumes of historic Manchester newspapers, including the Manchester Union, Evening Union, and Manchester Leader, many of which were recently donated to the MHA by the NH Union Leader. This unique resource, including the only known paper copies of some newspapers, are now accessible to researchers and visitors. The MHA is grateful to both the NH Union Leader and the Bean Foundation for making this important historical resource possible.

Research Center and Museum Upgrades The Manchester Historic Association Research Center at 129 Amherst Street received some important upgrades in 2019, thanks to generous support from the Samuel P. Hunt Foundation. The historic windows are receiving some much needed restoration, new banners were hung on the front façade, and new lighting was installed on the roof. Basement space was also reconfigured to allow for expanded collection storage. At the Millyard Museum, new carpeting was installed in June, made possible by CCA Global Partners. In December, a new sign was installed on the south side of the building, through the generosity of the Hunt Foundation and Sousa Signs.

Collection Highlights—2019

Straw Portraits Reunited A special addition to the Manchester Historic Association’s collection this year was a portrait of Charlotte Webster Straw, wife of Amoskeag Manufacturing Company agent Ezekiel A. Straw, donated by Charlotte S. Webster Walkup. It was not until the painting was delivered to Manchester that the museum staff made a surprising discovery – the portrait was a companion piece to a portrait of Ezekiel Straw that has been on display at the museum for more than a decade.

Ezekiel Straw, a civil engineer, was first hired by the Amoskeag Portraits of Charlotte and Ezekiel Straw at the Millyard Museum company in 1838 when – at the age of 18 – he designed and created the layout for the streets of Manchester. He later served as Governor of New Hampshire from 1872 to 1874. Charlotte Webster Straw, the daughter of an Amesbury, Mass. sea captain, married Ezekiel in 1842 and they had four children. She died at the age of 29 in 1852, and Ezekiel never remarried. A newspaper account at the time of her death described Charlotte as having “not only filled with fidelity the sacred office of wife, mother and friend, but was a generous benefactor to the poor and needy, to whose wants she administered with no grudging hand.”

The portraits were likely painted after her death in the early 1860s. It is unclear how the two paintings were separated, but they were given to the MHA by two different branches of the family. It is likely that, after Ezekiel’s death in 1882, Charlotte’s portrait was passed down to their daughter – also named Charlotte – and Ezekiel’s portrait was passed down to their son, Herman. The paintings were then handed down within the family for decades. The portraits, matching in size, style, and frames, are now reunited and on exhibit at the Millyard Museum.

Atherton Collection In February, the Manchester Historic Association received a collection of over 100 slides of Manchester by photographer James K.W. Atherton. Mr. Atherton was a prominent photojournalist with the United Press International wire service and later the Washington Post. Donated by Atherton’s daughter, Jamie Kirkley, the slides feature color images of Manchester’s Millyard taken c. 1968, shortly before urban renewal projects changed the landscape of the area. The images on the front and back cover of this report are from this collection, and the Association plans to feature many of these images in an upcoming exhibit at the Millyard Museum.
