Georgetown Historical Society was founded
in 1975, as a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization
incorporated in the State of Maine.
About half our members are
families that live in Maine and half are from Georgetown's diaspora
scattered throughout the United States with a concentration in New
England.
GHS operates with about 75 volunteer members engaged in the
management and presentation of our activities.
GHS library
and museum – and its growing collection of documents, books, maps,
photographs, and artifacts – are housed in our permanent headquarters, the GHS Center for History and Culture located at 20 Bay Point Road in Georgetown.
