Bob’S HISTORY BLOG

Robert J. Murphy, former city historian and past president of the Beacon Historical Society, was a master storyteller and writer. Bob wrote a variety of fascinating articles for what we affectionately call “Bob’s Blog.” You can use the magnifying tool in the upper right corner to search for a particular subject. In addition, his popular monthly newsletter of 38 years was compiled and edited by Denise VanBuren in Beacon’s Memorykeeper and Storyteller: Robert J. Murphy.
