A number of Collins families immigrated to Door County from another beautiful peninsula, the Cooley Peninsula in County Louth, Ireland. We welcome Laurie Collins, who will share the fascinating stories of her ancestors and other Collins families who made their homes in Baileys Harbor, some since 1857.
During summer months, the Baileys Harbor Historical Society presents free programs on topics of local history. You can also enjoy past programs, using this link to videos in our collection.
