Mission: The
mission of the Knox County Historical Society is to
increase, interpret, and preserve knowledge of Knox
County history. In addition to housing permanent collections,
a research library and publishing an informational
newsletter, the Society sponsors monthly educational
programs, adult and school group tours of its facilities,
changing exhibits exporing the interrelationship of
county, state, and national history, and other special
events for Knox County residents and visitors. The
Society acts as a clearinghouse for information on
Knox County history and genealogy, responding to telephone
and mail inquiries.
