MHS Elects New Board Member

The Manchester Historical Society is pleased to announce that Sarah McClintock of Manchester has accepted our invitation to join the Board of Directors. After many years of coming to the area to ski, Sarah and her husband Andrew Cairns decided to make Manchester their permanent home in 2022. Sarah recently retired from a 40-year career in corporate banking in New York. She was most recently Managing Director and National Sector Head for Non-Bank Financial Institutions at HSBC Bank. She is also a former member of the Board of Directors at the Morris County Historical Society in Morristown, NJ.

Sarah recently discovered that several ancestors on her grandmother's side were among the first settlers of Vermont. “They included Charles Bullis, who came with his family from Connecticut via Amenia, New York, to Manchester in the 1760s and is buried with many of his descendants in the Factory Point Cemetery,” she explained.

“We are truly delighted to have Sarah join our board,” said MHS President Frederica Templeton. “With her wealth of nonprofit experience and enthusiasm for local history, she is a most welcome addition to our group as we make plans to celebrate the 125th anniversary of the Manchester Historical Society this year.”
