The roots of the
Bay County Historical Society began over 135 years ago when a group of citizens created the Bay County Pioneer Society with
the purpose of preserving the history of Bay County. While lasting less than two decades, this "pioneering"
group of some of Bay County's most prominent citizens paved the way for the current society which dates back to 1919.
The Bay County Historical Society was formed with the intent of promoting the study, collection and preservation of Bay
County's story. Rising from humble beginnings and continuing to reach for the highest level of standards, the Bay County
Historical Society continues its commitment to preserving our history through the backing of our members.
