The Town of Onondaga Historical Society is a non profit organization chartered by the State of New York. We have collections of burials records for our Town cemeteries, a photo collection, newspaper articles relating to town residents, census records, County Poorhouse records and much more. We offer a newsletter for our members and we have monthly meetings with guest speakers.

The mission of the Town of Onondaga Historical Society is: 

To promote and encourage original historical research. 
To facilitate better knowledge and awareness of the history of the Town of Onondaga and the State of New York. 
To gather, preserve, interpret, display and make available for study artifacts, documents, photographs and other historical records.
To foster the preservation of important sites and structures and to assume custody in special instances by purchase or gift.
