Marblehead Historical Commission Archives

The Marblehead Historical Commission Archives contain many objects, artifacts and photographs which have been donated to the town of Marblehead. These items reflect the diverse Marblehead history and its early ties to the sea as well as its citizens' involvement in the founding and defense of our country.

This web site will allow you to view many of these archives, along with an image of most items. The web site is divided into six "Topics": 1) Commercial, Agriculture & Government; 2) Events; 3) Harbor, Boats and Boating; 4) Places, Sites and Streets; 5) People & Organizations; 6) Around Town
You may perform searches to find archive items, or simply browse through each section ("Topic").

To browse a Topic, click on the photo representing that group of items in the vertical column to the left. Note that "Around Town" includes Marblehead History, Artifacts, Culture and other miscellaneous topics.

To conduct a search, click on the "Search" button at the bottom of this page. Searches may also be conducted from within each Topic.
