ABOUT US

Where we are

How we celebrate history

How we celebrate history

We do our work in two Norwell locations: our Research Library & Archives are located on the third floor of the Sparrell School, and our Museum is located at the historic Jacobs Farmhouse.

How we celebrate history

From tours of the Jacobs Farmhouse, to gatherings that bring together neighbors to learn about their local history, to historic talks and presentations for all ages--this is how we celebrate the history of our town, one historic event at a time.  See our events page for more info.

What we preserve

Why & what we research

Why & what we research

The Norwell Historical Society is the keeper of our town's treasures--from old postcard collections, to family bibles, to Lucy Damon Waugh's 1888 wedding dress--we protect and preserve the items that tell our town's story, while we publish and write about the continued tale.

Why & what we research

Archives work can be transcribing old, hand-written documents that are deteriorating or our volunteers pick a topic of local importance and start their own project. HERE is a list of our current research opportunities. Looking for information on a subject? Use the CONTACT FORM to suggest a topic for our research!
