If you
have an artifact, or artifacts that you would be interested in donating
to our museum, we would welcome the time to talk to you about our policy
for donations. Please contact our curator Bonnie Elliott. She can always
be reached at the Museum during the summer season (June 15 to September
15). At other times she works both on and off site but can be reached
by our contact information.
The
Wolfville was owned by the Harris family of Wolfville, but registered
as built in Cornwallis Township.
The Randall
House has a small library of local history books and some genealogical
volumes with associated research files on the second floor. Here
you can consult deed searches for all houses in the Town which were built
before 1914, photograph albums of Society events and activities, and photocopies
and an index to our historic photograph collection.
Original
historic photographs and our small archival collection of documents and
pamphlets are kept at the Esther Clark Wright Archives at Acadia University
through the generosity of the Archivist. There is no access by the general
public to the Society collection but the Curator or the WHS Archivist will
be happy to help you find what you are looking for and arrange for reproduction
if required. Items intended for publication should be credited to
the Wolfville Historical Society. Standard local rates apply for
reproduction of photographs, postage and packing plus an archival usage
fee of $5 for reproduction of each group of up to three items.
