The Chatham Historical Society is dedicated to recalling the full and rich history of Chatham Borough, New Jersey, and aims to celebrate its local heritage. Founded in 1923, the mission of the Chatham Historical Society is to bring together those who are interested in historical matters relating to the settlement and development of Chatham and to make this material available to the public. The society presents programs, hosts an annual dinner for members, publishes a quarterly newsletter, pursues the recording of oral histories, researches the histories of local houses, and gives walking tours. Additionally, the Chatham Historical Society has published numerous books and publications about Chatham and has made available select historic reproductions for purchase. Current projects include digitizing many of the old photos in the archives and creating DVDs of recent programs. We are also working to add to our archive of remembered stories from residents of Chatham.
