WELCOME
 

Welcome to the Madison County Historical Society. From its early founding in 1884 and incorporation in 1926, the Society has been dedicated to the preservation of our history as it relates to the county. At our home in downtown Anderson is a lasting record of a way of life preserved for all to see, treasure and enjoy. We welcome all who are interested in exploring our rich cultural and social history.

Roof Replacement Project

We have accomplished much during our first two years in our building, offering interesting and exciting exhibits free to the public and developing programs and services. Thanks to our friends, members and sponsors for your generous contributions. The roof repair went very well! However, our goal has not yet been met and any gift will continue to be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
