It was founded in 1864, just three years after the town of Vineland was established by Philadelphia attorney Charles K. Our collections include 19th century glassware, art, musical instruments and photographs, as well as Native American artifacts and Civil War memorabilia. The First House ever built in Vineland (in 1862) is located on the grounds of the museum and is available for tours. The Society is a 501(c)3 non-profit that relies on donations and financial support from the community. Location: 108 S Seventh St, Vineland, NJ 08360

A recent donation that required some detective work...according to the 1962 article in the Times Journal, the first memory tree was planted on the grounds of the Woman's Club when it was located on Seventh Street. We also discovered that Daisy Gilbert Mitchell and her mother, Mrs. Mary L. Gilbert, were life members of the Historical Society!
