Community: History Tales about bygone towns

Published 1:32 am Wednesday, September 28, 2016

The Clallam County Historical Society’s History Tales presentations resume at 2:30 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 2, at the First United Methodist Church, 110 E. Seventh St., Port Angeles.

This month’s program will be held in the parlor which is directly across from the church office. Entry will be from the parking lot on the east side of the building.

Looking at an old Clallam County map, you can see the names of towns that used to dot the landscape — Disque, Rena and Bucyrus, to name a few — towns that have disappeared.

Jack Zaccardo will show photos and talk about towns or places that no longer exist in Clallam County, such as Ozette, Sappho and Port Crescent.

Zaccardo, retired from the Department of Natural Resources, originally is from Port Angeles and is a fourth generation timber worker.

History Tales is free and open to the public. For more information, call the Clallam County Historical Society’s office at 452-2662 or e-mail artifact@olypen.com.
