About the Society
Our BeginningsThe Minerva Historical Society was formed on March 22, 1955. It is a nonprofit, educational organization, formed to promote public interest in Minerva’s history and folklore. By collecting, preserving and interpreting material associated with its past we hope to foster knowledge and appreciation of our town. The Society received its Absolute Charter in 1984 and meets in April, July October and January.
