The PLACES section of the website contains an ever-growing area for the local Towns and Village histories to expand. Also included within the section is Schools, Museums, Historical Societies and Historic Sites.
Through coordination with local representatives of the Towns & Villages, Historians and Individuals, it is the aim of ACHS to provide a place for them to participate in this project of expanding knowledge for all to share.
The PLACES section will expand as required as a result of public contribution of material.
If you can help us expand this area go to the tab, “About Us” and contact the Webmaster. "Email Here"
