Directory of County Historical Societies in New Jersey

This directory is made available for the convenience of our visitors looking for information from other New Jersey counties. While these are county-wide organizations, there are many town-based historical societies and associations. We make no attempt to list those here; please contact the appropriate county association for more information. Where there is no historical association or society for a county, the government commission is listed as a contact.
