Towns County Historical Society

The Towns County Historical Society is dedicated to the preservation, protection and understanding of our county's heritage. It promotes the study, appreciation and interpretation of local and regional history, including both Appalachian and Native American history.

Activities include the investigation, study, display, publication and dissemination of such history, e.g. Oral history, folklore, community studies, the historical preservation of buildings and structures. The goal of such activities is to educate and stimulate an interest by the citizens and friends of Towns County in all facets of its history and heritage.

Our not-for-profit, tax-exempt organization is funded by membership fees and donations.

Gifts to the Society are deductible for Federal and State income, estate and gift tax purposes.

Contributions are greatly appreciated and are used for the purpose of supporting the mission of the Society.
