Hancock Historical Society
Hancock,
New Hampshire
The Hancock New
Hampshire Historical Society is a non-profit organization
incorporated in 1903 by twenty-seven founders.
The purpose of the Society is to collect and preserve
valuable manuscripts and artifacts relating to
the history of Hancock and its people. The collection
is housed in the Society's building on Main Street,
Hancock.
The house, property and museum are maintained
entirely by society volunteers as a public trust
and a community service. The collection of archives
and artifacts are the treasures of Hancock's past
and include such items as furniture, china, glass,
military items, musical instruments, a large collection
of tools, manuscripts, photographs, paintings,
textiles and more.
In addition to the permanent displays, there are changing
exhibits each summer. |
