History at Home: Ghosts in the Ground: Metal Detecting Montclair’s Past

A Victorian brooch with tiny turquoise stones. A brass button with a mysterious railroad insignia. An 1840 copper token from a faraway land. 

Join us as long-time Montclair resident Suzanne Moyers discusses these and other artifacts unearthed in Montclair, along with the surprising stories they tell about our town’s hidden history.

Suzanne Moyers, a former teacher and education writer, is completing her second historical novel, a tale of science and passion set on Victorian-era Long Island.  When she’s not metal-detecting, Suzanne enjoys volunteering for archeological digs, singing in a rock choir, and traveling.
