We are dedicated to interpreting the extraordinary chain of events that have taken place in and near this historic central Virginia town. [continued] |
Rehabilitation of this historic African American church is ongoing as the Friends of New London try to save it for interpretation and adaptive re-use. |
This web site is the virtual side of our museum and the first step in creating a significant new historic destination in central Virginia. We invite you to explore the other sections of our site and watch them grow as our research committee unearths new information. |
