Northfield Historical Society

The Northfield Historical Society was founded in 1997 by a group of former and current residents whose mutual desire was to obtain artifacts and information about the city and to preserve them for future generations.

The Society accomplishes this goal by supporting the Casto House and the Northfield Museum which are located in Birch Grove Park. Funds are raised through donations and fees at the twice-annual Antiques Appraisal Program. Additional funding is received through local interest programs such as that presented by Allen "Boo" Pergament on Atlantic City history.

Such programs are presented to the public without charge. Members continue to add to our obituary file which was begun years ago by the late Edna Ryon Collins.

Annual membership fees are $10.00 per person. lifetime memberships are available for $100.00 per person or $150.00 per couple. All members receive newsletters 3 or 4 times per year.
