William M VarrellFounded in 1890, the Ipswich Historical Society operates two museums on the South Village Green-the John Whipple House and the Heard House Museum-and provides lectures and other educational programs for its membership and the public.

These vivid images, together with writer William M. Varrell's gift for local history stories, create a delightful picture of this historic town. Read More Read Less
