Explore the RHS Facebook Archives, a rich repository of local history written by Carol Flynn. For two decades, Carol brought a deeply dedicated voice to public education at RHS. Her role as Facebook administrator through mid-2025 naturally extended her prolific research into meticulously detailed articles, most notably her multi-part historical series posts. Today, Carol continues her local history writing for The Beverly Review and other outlets.

The holidays are swiftly approaching. What is everyone's favorite holiday memory?
Ridge Historical strives to integrate history through Educational Programs, Exhibits and Community Outreach, and Research Services but it is completely dependent upon what has been donated. Can you help?
We particularly need items from the last 50 years: the 1960s, 1970s, 1980s, 1990s, 2000s
You can donate:
Bulletins & Programs, Documents & Papers
Yearbooks, Church directories & Bulletins, Reunion books
Photographs & Artwork
Clothing, Accessories & Textiles
Maps & Land Records
Household Objects (but not furniture)
Books (but only with a neighborhood connection)
