Welcome 

 

 

New home for HHS. Originally a mid 1800 school house.

Welcome to the Hebron, Maine Historical Society. We are proudly in our 53 third year. Our first meeting took place on August 14, 1971.   

 

We are located in the area of western Maine known as "Oxford Hills". The towns of Harrison, Hebron, Norway, Otisfield, Oxford, Paris,Waterford and West Paris comprise this area.

The Hebron Historical Society was incorporated in 1993 for the purposes of:

  • (a) to preserve, for the benefit of the general public, the history of the Town of Hebron, the Oxford Hills area and the State of Maine
  • (b) to provide to the general public a resource of historical data, documents and artifacts for the purposes of study, broad public education and enjoyment
  • (c) to provide for lectures, exhibits, printed or visual materials, social events and other activities associated therewith.

 

In October 2008, the Internal Revenue Service determined that the Hebron Historical Society is exempt from Federal income tax under section 501 (C) (3) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Society is qualified to receive tax deductible bequests, devises, transfers or gifts under section 2055, 2106 or 2533 of the Code. Any donations to the Society are tax deductible for the giver.

 

 

 

 

 

 

                                                                                         

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It is with great sadness that we post that member and former Director Ben Conant has passed.

Ben Passed on Wednesday June 26th

Ben will be surely missed by all that knew him as a gentleman, and curator of the Paris Cape Historical Society. Ben had the inate ability to remember facts, names, places and the stories that accompanied them. We were all graced by his presence whether he was attending a meeting as a listener or presenting the program. Much is lost with Ben's passing, but we were all blessed to have him in our lives. Rest in peace my friend.   A Funeral service will be helds July 14th at 2 PM at the Oxford Hills High School.
