Dorchester County Historical Society

The Dorchester County Historical Society is a private, nonprofit, organization dedicated to the collection, preservation, maintenance, exhibit, and making available for research: artifacts, documents and other items relative to the history of Dorchester County. The Dorchester County Historical Society was founded in 1953 to promote an appreciation of Dorchester County history. The Society strives to fulfill this goal by collecting artifacts, operating museums, maintaining an archive, and by advocating the preservation of other historic resources in the County. Many educational program meetings are held throughout the year at which guests speak on topics related to the local and regional history. Society members enjoy special invitations to periodic bus trips and various social events. Many opportunities for community service are made available to members through society projects. Records are available at the Library in Cambridge.
