The Butler County Historical Society was founded in 1927, when a group of residents met to discuss ways to preserve local history. In 1960, the Society was incorporated as a private non-profit entity. In 1991, it was designated the official historical organization of Butler County. At its office, the Society maintains a resource library of historical records and documents relating to the county that can be used by the public for research.  The Society also owns and operates four historic sites:  the Butler County Heritage Center, Cooper Cabin Pioneer Homestead, the Little Red School House, and the Lowrie/Shaw House.

If you have items of historic value to Butler County that you would like to see preserved, please call and talk to our Executive Director, Becky Crum-Reinsel.
