In 1947, the Charlotte Vermont Historical Society and the Charlotte Memorial Museum were designated by the Town of Charlotte to be the caretakers and the historical repository of the town for the housing of suitable arts and crafts, implements of home and farm life, historical documents and photographs, and discarded archives of the town; and to use our resources for the purpose of creating a "Living Memorial" through community outreach, educational programs, and genealogical research.
