The Tuckerton Historical Society is CLOSED until further notice due to the COVID-19 Pandemic.
June 29,2020: Due to the continuing uncertainty surrounding the Corona virus, THS has elected to not have its annual September Flea Market this year. We had hoped that the news would be more encouraging at this point, but it isn't, and we could not delay the decision any longer and have enough time to do the background tasks required to make it happen. We feel that the event is not essential enough to take the risk of being a site of virus spread, even if such a sized event would be officially allowed in September. Stay safe, and stay healthy! All scheduled programs and activities are canceled until further notice. Please check back here for further updates as the pandemic situation evolves. Stay safe, and stay healthy. Upcoming 2020 Events CLICK HERE to view a list of our upcoming 2020 Programs. On August 21, 2019 the Tuckerton Historical Society (THS) discovered that five Native American artifacts had been stolen. The pieces were not "locked down" and were apparently secreted out during our open hours, up to 1-2 months prior to the discovery.
A timely LEH police report was filed, with all surrounding information that we were able to provide. Appropriate dealers and societies were informed to keep an eye out for the items. We are now taking the investigation more public. If you have seen any of the objects in the attached photo, please contact the LEH Police Department or THS. We obviously have high definition inventory photographs of all five artifacts that clearly identify them. We appreciate your help in locating these items. If the objects are returned, we will consider the matter closed. Thank you for your attention. Feel free to share this post. -THS
