"History
of Trombley/Centre House"
with Patrick Trombley, Patricia Anspaugh & William Wright
1:00pm
Trombley/Centre House is the oldest frame house still standing in Bay County, built in the classic "Greek Revival Style”
popular in the mid-west from 1820-1840. Since being moved from its original site near 24th and Water Streets, the restoration
of the home has become a constant effort of many dedicated volunteers under the guidance of the Bay County Historical
Society. Its historic herb garden is maintained by the Olde Thyme Herb Society, an affiliate group of the BCHS. Join
members of the Trombley/Centre House Committee for a look back at the history of the structure and renovation plans for the
future.
SPECIAL NOTE: Following the presentation at 2:30pm members of the Trombley House Committee will offer
a tour of the house (weather permitting) at 901 JFK Drive. There is no admission charge
