Historical Society Annual Appeal Underway
The St. Mary’s County Historical Society’s annual appeal for donations is underway until November 10, 2023. The goal is $25,000.
“Our goal is $25,000 which will allow us to compensate an Archivist for about eighteen months. Your help in reaching, if not exceeding, that goal will ensure that we can afford an Archivist into the future. It is an ambitious goal but as we did not hold an Annual Appeal in 2022, we hope that you can find your way to a doubly generous contribution this year,” reads the organization’s website.

Its large collection of genealogical and archival materials is available to members and to the public for family and historical research. Its mission is to bring into focus the people, places, and events that make the county extraordinary.
Headquartered in historic Tudor Hall in Leonardtown, the Historical Society is open Wednesdays through Friday from 11am to 4pm and on the second and fourth Saturdays of the month.
The St. Mary’s County Historical Society is the repository of a unique collection of Maryland memorabilia and museum pieces displayed on the first floor of Tudor Hall and in the Old Jail Museum at 41625 Courthouse Drive.
