2024 Annual Appeal

The Colchester Historical Society collects artifacts and archival material for the purpose of preserving it and making it accessible to the public. In keeping with our mandate, we only collect material related to Colchester County. Please keep in mind that we cannot accept all donations. The volunteer Collections Committee is responsible for deciding what is accepted into our collection.

Material suitable for donation may include, but is not limited to:

• • Items created by Colchester manufacturers
  • Advertising material
  • Photographs of events, buildings, people (identified)
  • Maps
  • Diaries
  • Genealogical records
  • Ledgers or records of Colchester businesses
  • Records of clubs and societies
  • Oral histories
  • Books and family histories for our reference library
