In 1713, Yarmouth residents laid out a 160-acre reservation for the indigenous peoples of Yarmouth to live upon. This confined area was their home for 65-years. Join Wampanoag/Nipmuc, Waban Webquish (Marcus Hendricks), and local historian, Bob Kelley, on this walk around the boundaries of this one-time reservation to learn more about those that once lived here.
