About the Hawthorne Historical Society
The Hawthorne Historical Society was founded in 2006 by borough residents with the goal of fostering interest in the history of Hawthorne through community-building and educational efforts.
The Hawthorne Historical Society meets monthly on the second Monday of the month at 7p at the Louis Bay 2nd library and community center. Current topics of discussion include the former geography of the town, historical buildings and residences, and resident memorabilia.
The assistance of any long-time residents with memories of the borough throughout the years; residents with Hawthorne memorabilia; or anyone interested in researching local history is greatly needed. Join us!
