Contact Us

As we are an all volunteer organization, our hours of operation do vary from season to season, so it is best to call, text, or email as you plan your visit. And if you are visiting with a specific research goal in mind, with some advance notice, we can scout out whatever resources we have and have them ready for your visit.

If you have a photograph, paper record or artifact that you think might be helpful in our research and understanding of local history, please reach out so we can discuss it. We generally accept all items that have a direct connection to local history or a family who lived or worked in Port Byron, Mentz or Montezuma. We cannot accept something just because it is “old.”

While we do not charge research fees, please be aware that we rely of monetary donations to help keep the lights on and the doors open.

Monetary Donations

If you wish to make a monetary donation, you can either send a check or use the PayPal buttons. Please be sure to leave a note or send an email so we know who to thank, and if you want it to be put toward a specific cause.
