Brockway Area Historical Society

The Brockway Area Historical Society operates the Taylor Memorial Museum seasonally. It maintains a database of significant events, such as weddings and deaths, taken from the Brockway Record newspaper during its 100+ years of production (from its inception on January 8, 1887, to its closure on August 5, 1992).

In addition, the Brockway Area Historical Society has a database of local veterans. You can view these or learn how you or your loved one can be included in that database.

Brockway Area Historical Society has a microfilm archive digitized in a Word-searchable format and is available at the Taylor Memorial Museum along with the microfilm version.  These archives also contain editions from 10/5/1988 to 8/5/1992.

After searching these databases, you may request a copy of the complete article referenced by mail or visit the museum to access the Brockway Record on-site. Copies of the full articles referenced in the "Results" are available by mail at $5.00 per researched name and $1.00 for each additional printed page.
