Millsboro Historical Society: Preserving the Rich History of Millsboro
Millsboro, Delaware is a town that is rich in history. From its early beginnings as a small farming community to its current status as one of the fastest-growing towns in Sussex County, Millsboro has always been a place where people come together to build something special. And at the heart of this community is the Millsboro Historical Society.
The Millsboro Historical Society was founded in 1975 with the goal of preserving and promoting the history of this unique town. Over the years, it has become an integral part of life in Millsboro, providing residents and visitors alike with a glimpse into what life was like here in days gone by.
One of the primary functions of the society is to collect and preserve artifacts related to local history. This includes everything from photographs and documents to furniture and clothing. The society's collection is housed in its museum, which is open to visitors throughout most of the year.
In addition to preserving artifacts, the society also hosts events throughout the year that celebrate local history. These events include lectures on various topics related to local history, tours of historic sites around town, and even reenactments that bring key moments from Millsboro's past back to life.
But perhaps most importantly, the society serves as a hub for anyone who wants to learn more about their own family's connection to Millsboro's past. Whether you're researching your family tree or just curious about what life was like for your ancestors who lived here generations ago, you'll find plenty of resources at your disposal through this organization.
Of course, none of this would be possible without support from members and volunteers within our community. If you're interested in getting involved with preserving our town's rich heritage or simply want more information about what we do here at The Millsboro Historical Society please don't hesitate contact us today!
