The Hutchinson Family Singers of North River Rd., Milford, NH were the most popular and influential family singing group in America during the 19th century.
They gained national fame while singing against slavery and for many social reforms. They have been largely forgotten in their home town.
We are dedicated to the goal of creating a public memorial to preserve their legacy and celebrate their remarkable contributions to America's social, cultural and musical history.
