On Saturday, October 6, 2018 the Hill House Museum helped sponsor the sailors from the USS Constellation and soldiers from Fort Norfolk as they discussed the Battle of Craney Island and the role that Portsmouth and its militia played in the War of 1812. This event was in conjunction with Portsmouth's Museum Day. Everyone who stopped by not only learned more about their tools, food/drink, weapons, and personal items but also about the Hill House as well.
