Cheshire Historical Society
Organized in 1951, the Cheshire Historical Society is a group of old and new residents who have a desire to discover and preserve the heritage of Cheshire, Connecticut. They educate and assist others in their inquiries into our past and promote a love for our town and its inhabitants.
Our first home was in the 1st. District School (1951-1956), then the old Cheshire Public Library (Williams House) on Main Street (1956-1972). We are presently located at the Hitchcock - Phillips House on the Cheshire Green, as shown above.
During the year we hold four programs. The programs cover the History of Cheshire, Local Area History, Crafts, and Other Topics of Interest to our Membership. In addition we hold special events that concern our town at the time.
