Lecture: "The Lost Corbit Tannery - Found at Last"

This presentation outlines the results of an archeological research project conducted during the past 4 years by John Bansch, Coordinator of Archeology Projects at Historic Odessa. 

Delaware Archeology: Research in Odessa

In an effort to find the location of the lost Corbit Tannery and to understand what we do know about the actual tannery, John has reviewed all of the files in the current HOF Research Library and spent 4 years diggings test pits at various locations near the Corbit mansion.

Following the lecture, an optional walking tour of the tannery locations (pending weather and site conditions) will be available.

Don't miss this opportunity to experience archeology in a historic Delaware village as we seek to solve a mystery in Odessa.
