Sowams Heritage Area Project Coordinator Dr. David Weed presented a proposal for establishing interpretive signage at eight locations throughout the Area, including one in the Rehoboth Village, to members of the Rehoboth Historical Commission. The signs provide information about events and locations from the 17th century that can still be found today. The Commission has already placed a dozen signs of its own throughout the Town, some of which describe events from the 1600s when the Town was just forming. The Sowams signs will help to connect places in Rehoboth with over fifty other locations throughout the eight communities in the East Bay Rhode Island and nearby Massachusetts that are part of the Sowams Heritage Area.
