The ill-fated ship to Jaffa

This day in 1866 is the 160th anniversary of the Nellie Chapin ship’s voyage to Jaffa in Palestine. Nearly 100 families joined the effort with promises of utopia, yet found utter disaster.

Join Bill Plaskon, President of Jonesport Historical Society, for a discussion and slideshow.
