The Anatomy of a Fire and the Process of Rebuilding
The Greece Historical Society, in partnership with the Greece Public Library, is hosting a presentation by Paul Kimball titled “The Morgan-Manning House Museum: The Anatomy of a Fire and the Process of Rebuilding.” The event will take place on Tuesday, November 18, at 7 p.m. at the Greece Public Library, 2 Vince Tofany Boulevard, Rochester.
On January 14, 2025, a devastating fire destroyed a large portion of the Morgan-Manning House Museum in Brockport. Kimball will discuss the fire and the progress made to date to save this historic building and eventually reopen it to the public.
Paul Kimball was the Clarkson Town Supervisor from 1984 to 2017 and championed numerous town historical projects. Now he is heading the rebuilding effort to restore the Morgan-Manning House to its former grandeur. He also currently serves as a member of the Clarkson Historical Committee, which oversees the historic 1854 Clarkson Academy Schoolhouse on Ridge Road.
