MISSION STATEMENT
"The intent of this society is to collect and preserve objects, artifacts, documents, and photographs relating to the historical development and life in and pertaining to Madison County, Indiana. Through exhibition, education, and research, we can interpret and promote an awareness and appreciation for the history of our community to benefit our present and future generations."
Our historic logo was created by Helen Harvey Baumer. It carries great significance for the Adena-Hopewell and Indiana periods of the history of Madison County, Indiana. The three sections of the symbol specifically address certain aspects of those periods.
The Arrowhead represents the Adena-Hopewell who lived in the area during archaic times and who created the Great Mounds; the Peace Pipe is representative of the Leni-Lenape or Delawares; and, the Feather represents the peace which the Delaware so gallantly exhibited when they left this area in the 1820's in accordance with the Treaty of St. Mary's of October, 1818.
