Gone But Not Forgotten Mourning Exhibit & Tour

  • Hearthside House 677 Great Road Lincoln, RI, 02865 United States (map)

Simon Thornton may have died in 1873, but Hearthside keeps his memory alive by presenting one of our most popular exhibits about 19th century Victorian mourning customs. Experience all of the traditions and superstitions embraced by Victorians, who viewed the pageantry of death as a necessary part of life.  

This tour is done during daylight hours for those who prefer brighter light for their experience.
