is to promote the collection,preservation and dissemination of that history, as simply
stated, "to preserve things of historical interest and place same on exhibition, to
publish historical articles, to acquire, mark and care for places or things of
historical interest...".
In keeping with that mission, the Society, also known as the Warren County Historical and
Genealogical Society, acts as a repository for historic, cultural and archival data and
artifacts from prehistoric times until the present. It maintains a museum for the
exhibition of county artifacts and memorabilia as well as a resource center (library) for
public education and research, including genealogy.
