Thomas Reed claims he was first abducted in 1966 at age 6, along with his brother, from their home in Sheffield, taken inside a UFO and shown a projection of a willow tree.
Reed claims they were abducted again the following year and then later found in their driveway by their mother, who had been searching for the missing boys on horseback.
The boys' mother and grandmother were abducted along with the boys while driving their car two years later and taken to meet two ant-like figures and then placed in a cage before finding themselves back in their car, Reed claims.
The Great Barrington Historical Society & Museum formally inducted Reed's alien abduction stories, possibly becoming the first "mainstream" historical society in the U.S. to declare a UFO encounter to be historical fact, reported the Boston Globe.
"It means that we believe it is true," said Debbie Oppermann, director of the historical society.
