WELCOME

The Mission of the Marstons Mills Historical Society is to foster an interest in the story of our Village. We preserve historical images, documents, and artifacts; research historic resources; and support educational opportunities for all ages for Villagers and other interested persons, in order to better understand and appreciate the past, present, and future of Marstons Mills.

ABOUT OUR SOCIETY

The Marstons Mills Historical Society was founded on January 30, 1983 at the oldest house in the village, the Ebenezer Goodspeed house on River Road, then owned by Arnold and Irene Hadfield, in order to collect old photos, urging one’s grandparents to contribute.
