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.
