by Sarah Craighead Dedmon
A group of local historians plans to build a living history village that will transport visitors into 18th century Machias. The Revolutionary War Reenactors of Downeast Maine and Machias Historical Society recently received a 75+-acre land donation from Dr. Gayle Kraus, who says she is “totally enthusiastic” about the project, called “Liberty Village”.
