How can you help the Champaign County Historical Society?

Photographs

A significant component of the Champaign County Historical Museum’s collection is photographs that document the people, places and events of Champaign County.

An important source of these photos has been current and former county residents and their relatives.

The Board of Trustees of the Champaign County Historical Society is therefore asking those who have such photos consider making them available to the Champaign County Historical Museum via one of the following means:

1)  Donate the actual original picture.
2)  Bring the original to the museum where we can scan it and return it to you.
3)  Scan the original yourself and attach it to an e-mail to our Museum Curator at champhistmus@ctcn.net

In all cases, please provide a brief description of the photo, names of individuals in the photo, approximate date of photo, and any further details you have about the photo.
