Monetary donations are greatly appreciated as they help off-set the cost of our Resource Center and Light Station. These donations are tax deductible.

Archival Donations

Our collection keeps growing thanks to generous ndividuals who donate copies of family histories, genealogies, photographs, obituaries, news clippings, artifacts, etc. We also appreciate copying items from your collection. Items to be copied will be handled carefully and returned to you promptly. We will continue to accept genealogies, birth announcements, obituaries, funeral cards. These items will be forwarded to the LACS where the PWHS genealogy collection is on permanent loan.
