Pensauken Historical Society

Great day at the Griffith Morgan House and nice quick visit to the Burrough Dover House  These two beautiful houses are well worth a visit and Griffith Morgan was even more interesting than usual for two reasons:  1.  Our tour was by Sue Hueskin, enormously helpful local historical volunteer and outfitter, very interesting, knowledgeable and well spoken, and 2:  It was Militia Day, and there was music, gaming, chair caning, basket weaving, and a lovely day for it.

On our way home, we dropped by for a quick look at Burrough Dover house because my friend, Barbara Solem (of Atsion Mansion and Batsto) had never seen it, nor had her friend Ron.  They were both enchanted.

First Sunday of the month, you too can enjoy these two wonderful historic houses thanks to the efforts of volunteers with the Pennsauken Historical Society who give generously of their time and energy to preserve our American history heritage!  

Thank you volunteers!
