Four New Board Members Elected

We are pleased to announce that we have four new board members that were elected at the Annual Meeting of Historic Hope Foundation on April 24th. Welcome to Shoshana Serxner-Merchant, Harriet Stout, Dawson Tyler, and Norma Wesson.

Dawson Tyler graduated from Washington and Lee University with a degree in history. He lives in Edenton and owns his own business, Down East Preservation, which specializes in the preservation, construction, and design of historical structures.

Harriet Stout was Chief Curator of the Chesapeake Beach Railroad Museum for 27 years. She and her husband live in and are restoring the Thomas Bond house, which is believed to be built by Jerimiah Bunch, who is thought to have built the Hope mansion.

Shoshana Serxner-Merchant lives in Raleigh and has been a volunteer for our Living History Day program for the past 5 years. She often brings her friends from Raleigh to help with the program. In addition to her time, she is also a frequent donor to Historic Hope Foundation.

Norma Wesson is a school and community leader and Branch Manager of Self Help Credit Union in Windsor.
