1976 - 2007

Organized  on January 15, 1976 with 42 Charter Members

The purpose of the society is to bring together persons interested in the history of Southport and surrounding areas.  Understanding the history of our community gives us a better appreciation of our American heritage.

 

The society’s basic function is to discover and collect materials which help illustrate our history and to provide for the preservation of such material while making it accessible to all who wish to study or examine it. 

 

We actively seek to preserve the town’s records and archives, and encourage the preservation of historic buildings, monuments and markers.

 

The Executive Board consists of the following officers for 2007

 

President:        Patricia Kirkman
