| The Huntingdon County Historical Society's mission is to promote the discovery,
collection, preservation, and interpretation of material pertaining to the history of
Huntingdon County. That purpose is advanced in four major fields of activity: (1)
the acquisition of research collections of books, archival materials, photographs, and
similar materials which are organized and made available to the public for investigating
the history of Huntingdon County; (2) the interpretation of Huntingdon County life in past
eras through the Mc Murtrie House museum, the 1823 Shaver's Creek Presbyterian Church
property, and the J.C. Blair Company Museum; (3) the presentation of programs and exhibits
which explore aspects of state and local history, and of annual tours to regional historic
sites; and (4) the publication of books which focus on aspects of the history of
Huntingdon County. |
