Hampshire Township Historical Society is a non-profit organization formed in 2001 to preserve and promote the history of Hampshire, Illinois and Hampshire Township.
Join us at our meetings on the fourth Thursday of the month January thru May and September and October.
Watch for special events throughout the year!
Thank you for visiting our website!
Please consider becoming a member and helping us reach our short term goal of increasing our membership and continuing to provide free public programs and our long term goal of acquiring a permanent location to hold those programs and also to display photos, documents, and artifacts pertaining to Hampshire Township history.
We present Facebook Live events at each of our programs. We are still learning and working to improve the experience but If you missed them you can still view them on our Facebook page!
