The Marlborough Historical Society

At the Historic Peter Rice Homestead
in Marlborough, Massachusetts



Marlborough, Massachusetts was incorporated as a town in 1660 and will celebrate the 350th anniversary of its founding in 2010.  (More on the founding and history of Marlborough here.)

The Marlborough Historical Society, founded in 1964, is an all-volunteer, non-profit organization dedicated to historic preservation, education, and celebration in Marlborough.  (More on the founding, mission, and officers of the Society here.)

Free monthly meetings and Marlborough's historical archives are held in the Peter Rice Homestead and Museum, which is maintained by the Society.  The Homestead and Museum is a great place to bring student groups and out of town visitors.  Send a message at least ten days in advance to arrange a tour.

Upcoming meetings and special events

Thanks for a great year.

Please join us at the Peter Rice Homestead (pictured above) when we resume our monthly meetings, all free and open to the public, in the fall.

This fall our genealogy study group will also resume their every other week schedule of meetings.
