What We're Doing

Established in 1998, the Newcastle Historical Society is dedicated to preserving the stories, images, artifacts and memorabilia of our town.  Our museum is open Saturdays in July and August, and year round we work on various projects including scanning historic photos, digitizing primary documents, and preserving cemeteries and their information.  We also offer numerous books, maps and photos for sale.
