Welcome. The Winslow Historical Preservation Committee is a committee of the Town of Winslow. It has taken over role of the Winslow Historical Society* to gather, preserve, and disseminate information about Winslow's history.
Online, we are creating a central repository of photographs, maps, documents, and links to information related to the Town's history. The goal is to foster easy access to this information for Town residents, students, and anyone interested in the history of the area. We also hope to facilitate discussion and the sharing and preservation of information about Winslow History.
More information about the Historical Committee is available on our Facebook page. If you are interested in participating in our efforts or have materials you'd like to contribute, please contact us.
*the Winslow Historical Society was a non-profit corporation administratively suspended in due to non-filing of annual corporate papers. The committee, being an arm of the municipal government, is believed to have greater permanency, even should it suffer a period of inactivity. It has come into possession of the materials formerly held by the Society, and will continue to collect, organize, and make materials available online.
