Winchester Historical Society: Upstairs, Downstairs at the Sanborn with Ellen Knight
Wednesday, October 4, 2023
We are pleased to present historian and Winchester Archivist Dr. Ellen Knight for our Annual Members' Meeting program.
The Sanborn House rose as a rare Beaux Arts residence on a hill overlooking Winchester during an early 20th-century age of prosperity. Who lived in the house and what do they teach about the structure of Winchester society? How did the house reflect the town’s development and built environment of the time? Using new research, Dr. Knight will reveal insights into the lives and fortunes of the Sanborn family and staff, Sanborn House, and Winchester itself.
