About Us:
The Warren Historical Society was formed in 1964 by a number of Warren citizens interested in preserving the history of Warren and its people by collecting artifacts and documents related to Warren's past. Among the earliest members were Dr. Campbell, Edwin K. Boggs Sr, Bertha Drewett, Ted Overlock, Leland Overlock and others. By the end of the year 1964 over 64 artifacts were in the collection. Larger items were stored in the Boggs' barn and archival documents and photos were kept upstairs in the Warren Free Public Library. Today the collection has grown to thousands of artifacts, photos and documents.
Major projects that the society has undertaken include the total replacement of the front porch, and in 2012, the clapboards on the house, and also the installation of a climate controlled unit for long term storage of the archival and textile collections.
