The annual Memorial Day observance at the Town of Sullivan Community Center in Rome has been cancelled due to current social distancing guidelines. As a traditional salute to our veterans, the Bob Reed Memorial American Legion Post #153 with the help of volunteers will have flags on the graves of veterans at the Hoffman, Riverview and St. Luke’s/Crowder cemeteries.
The Town of Sullivan Museum, usually open on Memorial Day, will also be closed. The museum, located in Rome in the old brick Schoolhouse (behind St. Luke’s Lutheran Church) will be open for tours on three Sundays this summer, June 28, July 26, and August 23 from 1 pm to 4 pm. The Bark River Woods Historical Society in Hebron will open their museum at the same time so that history buffs and amateur genealogists can visit both locations. The public is invited and there is no cost to visit the museums.

We recently had our copy of the Sullivan News digitized. We are in the process of creating an index for the obituaries, birth announcements and marriages.
