The Annual Dinner Meeting of the Shiremanstown Historical Society took place On October 11, 2016, at The West Shore Elks.
After dinner and a brief business meeting, Janeal Jaroh from Time Travelers Trunks, presented, “ Seems Like Such A Quiet Town”, the Industrial Revolution in Cumberland County. Daniel Drawbaugh, Masland Carpets, Frog and Switch, and Carlisle Tire and Rubber were some of the industries and people she discussed and how the Cumberland County Railroad influenced business in the area.
Everyone enjoyed her enthusiastic presentation and the people the audience ended up portraying while wearing period hats.
