The Bradys Bend Historical Society, a non-profit organization, was founded in 1979 to provide community service regarding historical preservation and research.
The area was once a major industrial center, much more densely populated than at present time. Literally thousands of people came to the area seeking work during a relatively short time in the last half of the nineteenth century. They left behind family histories, memorabilia and customs from many parts of Europe.
The Society has collected oral histories, compiled cemetery records, and acts as a clearinghouse for those seeking information about their ancestors’ past lives in our area.
