The Jackson Historical Society was formed in April of 1977 by a group of townspeople whose interest was to preserve the history of Jackson. The Society records information about the past and present of Jackson for its future. Its bylaws state:
"The object of this Society shall be to engender interest in the history of the Jackson area by the collection, display and care of articles of historic and educational interest, to accept such materials by gift, loan, purchase or all other appropriate means and to act as a body for dissemination of information thereof."
Our new home in Jackson is the old Town Hall, which is on the National Register of Historic Places. The Society has committed itself to restore and preserve this historic building as funds become available. We have established a building fund for this purpose and contributions are most appreciated. |

As was in the past, is in the present and will be in the future, residents and visitors alike enter Jackson through its covered bridge, built in 1876. |
