Historic homes are a reminder of the history of our town and the people who lived here.
The Amity and Woodbridge Historical Society wishes to honor and call attention to the historic buildings in our town through the issuance of plaques bearing the name of the original owner or occupant(s), and the date of construction. The intention of the plaque program is to recognize the historic nature of the building, its historic character and/or the people who built them. If you are interested in purchasing and installing a plaque for your home, please print the following form and mail it in. We anticipate starting this program in the fall, based on the interest we receive.

Purpose of the
Program:
The Amity and Woodbridge Historical Society wishes to honor
and call attention to the historic buildings in our town through the issuance
of plaques bearing the name of the original owner or occupant(s,) and the date
of construction. The purchase of a plaque from the Historical Society does not
restrict any future alterations to the house or building on which it is
displayed. The intention of the plaque
program is simply to recognize the historic nature of the building, its
historic character and/or the people who built them. The plaque in no way
provides protection from future demolition to the build on which it is placed.
What does the plaque
look like?
The Plaque is white and approximately 12” x 18” with the
name of the Amity and Woodbridge Historical Society on it, the date of
construction of the building and the name of the original owner or longtime
owner of the building. The owner of the plaque is responsible for installation
of the plaque.
Price of Plaque: $250 Members $280 Nonmembers (please

A one year membership
is included in the price of the plaque and includes our newsletter and advance
notice of our events. Your membership helps AWHS further our mission of
preserving and celebrating history in Woodbridge. Thank you!
