2004 Elisha Winn Fair
The Winn Fair will be held October 2nd and 3rd on the grounds of the Elisha Winn House in Dacula, Georgia. Tours will be given of the Winn House, (circa 1812), the Walnut Grove School, (circa 1875), and the log jailhouse, (circa 1821). Volunteers will be at each location to conduct the tours and answer questions.
Special events and demonstrations will feature crafts, the quilt show/quilt raffle, candle making, loom weaving, pottery, churning, hand tatting, and basket weaving. A blacksmith will also be at work and special music will be local blue-grass bands. There will also be food venders with delicious food and drinks. We have activities planned for all ages.
Everyone is welcome and we would especially like to hear from Winn’s descendants who plan to attend.
