Welcome
In the late 1700s what was to become Monroeville was nothing more than a few scattered farms. In the more than 200 years that have passed, Monroeville has become a thriving suburban center of commerce and home to some 30,000 residents. On this site the Monroeville Historical Society presents the story of our community.
In these pages you will find the surprisingly rich history of Monroeville as told in words and pictures.
We invite you to spend a little time with us, get to know Monroeville, and consider joining the historical society in its mission to preserve and foster our community’s historical heritage.
The Society’s meetings are held monthly (except in February and December) on the third Tuesday at 7:00 p.m. at the Monroeville Public Library. The public is invited to attend.
A complete listing of activities and events may be found by clicking on the "Events" page. For correspondence, click on the "Contact Us" page.
Please see the "Books and Articles" page for the FREE online publications that are available.
See our "Newsletter" page to keep up-to-date with the society.
