Historical Society Archives
In 1999, the Society established a partnership with the Mathews Memorial Library to house their respective collections of archival research materials and memorabilia related to Mathews County, the Chesapeake Bay and the Commonwealth of Virginia.
These two collections are housed in the Chesapeake Room and the Herman Hollerith Archival Room at the Mathews Memorial Library. The collections are cataloged and can be accessed by the public using the Library's online public catalog system.
The archives contains published works, history and genealogy files, maps, and a special collection of rare documents and photographs pertaining to the county. The archivist and library staff help with historical information and suggest references on genealogical inquiries.
