June 5, 1895 – William Boyd is born in Hendrysburg, about 26 miles east of Cambridge. He became a silent film actor and would become a multi-millionaire after he purchased rights to his character, Hopalong Cassidy, then put the dozens of films on TV. A Hopalong Cassidy Museum in Cambridge is a tribute to Boyd and displays Hopalong gear and collectibles. Where is your old Hopalong cereal bowl?
