This 1890s building once served as offices for the Crown Cotton Mill but now serves as headquarters for the Whitfield-Murray Historical Society. The facility is used for many functions—meetings, seminars, family reunions, social affairs and fundraising events. The building also serves as a repository of valuable information for those interested in genealogical and local historical research. One can find cemetery lists, marriage indexes, census indexes, county and family histories, and more than 700 family files—all available to the public. The Archives also houses revolving displays of local historical interests.
We are accepting all Christmas donations for our upcoming Christmas sale in November.
Please bring all donations to the Crown Gardens & Archives before October 18th.
