The Montgomery County Historical Society, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, was formed in 1924.  Our charter is to promote interest in and the enjoyment of the history of Montgomery County, Tennessee, and adjacent areas; to ascertain, preserve and promote local history; to identify and preserve local historic sites, structures, artifacts and other materials and promote their preservation; to hold periodic meetings in keeping with the interest of the society.

​Our Society holds monthly meetings and special events in support of local history in and around Montgomery County, Tennessee.  You can find a schedule of these events on our Events page, and on our Facebook page (see link below).  We publish a monthly newsletter, the Cornsheller, for our members, featuring history clips, upcoming meetings/events, and lengthy family histories. We recognize local historic preservation efforts with an annual Awards program.

Our Society does not maintain a research library of historic materials.  We refer researchers to the great Montgomery County Archives and the also-great Genealogy Room of the Clarksville-Montgomery County Public Library.
