This brief history of the town is not meant to be taken as definitive. Rather, it is my view of the place which has been my home for fifteen years and my small tribute to the people who have created it.
Regular office Winter hours start on Oct 15th, 2025.
Come visit Friday and Saturday from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.
MARK YOUR CALENDAR
Due to unforeseen circumstances, there will not be a general meeting of the Cumberland County Genealogical Society on Tuesday, March 17, 2026. We regret any inconvenience this may cause.
Meetings are always open to the public, so please come join your local family Genealogical Society, which has been serving Cumberland County for the past 25 years. Research your heritage and find new relatives. Learn about what times your parents, grandparents and other ancestors, lived through, where, when, how, education, religion, and occupations, etc. and about the times, that they lived their lives.
