Local History and genealogy

In the new Northborough Free Library building, we have a Local History Room (though it's not organized, yet).  Here we will have Vital Records of various Massachusetts towns, some histories, genealogies of local families, and more. 

There is more material available at the
Northborough Historical Society  by appointment, particularly clippings, photos, and other primary source material. 

Their contact information is:

NORTHBOROUGH HISTORICAL SOCIETY
PO BOX 661
50 Main Street
Northborough, MA 01532
(508) 393-6298
e-mail: NHS1906@verizon.net

The library also subscribes to Ancestry.com.  This database is available only in the library and has no remote access. 

The Worcester Public Library has an extensive local history and genealogy department, particularly for materials relevant to all towns in Worcester County.
