WHAT HAPPENS
IN LYNN

Lynn Museum Banner

STAYS.

Lynn is known as the Shoe City. It is the home of Marshmallow Fluff and
the birthplace of the “Golden Greek.”

For more than a century, the Lynn Museum and Historical Society has collected,
maintained and fostered an appreciation of Lynn through its textiles, paintings, photographs
and historical artifacts.

Ours is a city built on fascinating legacies –legacies that
the Museum is determined to preserve and pass on to future generations.

Fifty nine of these legacies are featured on the following
pages: individuals, families and businesses that have made a
significant contribution to Lynn’s history.

These legacies will be incorporated into the Museum’s
permanent collection. But the list of legacies has only begun
to be compiled; it is by no means complete.
