Watertown Historical Society Museum - Watertown, CT
The Watertown Historical Society was organized in 1945, with the objective of collecting local history. Through the years members have researched aspects of the area, our schools, industries, and families. Settled in 1701, known as Wooster-Westbury and finally Watertown, our community has certainly grown. Documents and artifacts collected mandated storage, and from 1968 to 2016, the Fire District generously donated the second floor of its building at 22 Deforest Street as a museum site. The collection is currently in storage while the society looks for a new home.
The primary goal of the society has always been to preserve Watertown history. The collection illustrates the town’s expansion in all districts, including Oakville, Guernseytown, Winnemaug, Linkfield, etc. Although we cannot fulfill any research requests while the collection is in storage, our digital collection of the Town Timesnewspaper from 1947 to 2000 remain accessible through this website. We also have a fine selection of Connecticut state and local histories, and a wide genealogy area.
The society is eager to enlarge membership and active participation. Since its inception many new residents have moved into Watertown, many of our young people have grown up, and the town has increased in population.
PLEASE NOTE THAT THE COLLECTION IS CURRENTLY IN STORAGE AND THE MUSEUM WILL BE CLOSED UNTIL THE SOCIETY CAN LOCATE A NEW HOME. Meanwhile the Old Nova Scotia Schoolhouse will be available for tours by appointment. Please call or email us to inquire. Thank you.
