Dorchester Historical Society

The Dorchester Historical Society has a large library of books, manuscripts, photographs, maps and drawings. However the Society has no staff to supervise the use of the library. Research inquiries must be submitted to the Society via mail or email and our volunteers will attempt to find an answer. Dedicated volunteers are constantly working to catalog the collection, and we welcome new people to help. You can check out the resources below for research into Dorchester history.
