Description
Sprawling mansions and granite buildings from the past are
still at the center of Peace Dale village life, but the town's
history is more than just a tale of a privileged few. The legacy
of the Irish and Italian immigrants who came to work in the
mills and stayed to build a way of life is as important in the
community today as the legacy left by the wealthy Hazard and
Rodman families. Discover these early residents of Peace Dale
in a remarkable collection of images, complemented by the text
of author and local historian Betty J. Cotter. From Peace Dale's
famous arched bridges to the mom-and-pop stores that ring Peace
Dale Flats, this unprecedented collection explores the memories
of yesteryear. The photographs date from the mid-nineteenth
century to the 1960s and were gathered from the collections of
the Pettaquamscutt Historical Society, the Peace Dale Library,
and local residents.
