The NHS has been collecting, preserving, presenting and promoting Nunda NY area history since 1983.

View 1854 and 1858 wall maps of Livingston County, exhibits of Nunda artifacts, and our major exhibit telling "The Story of Nunda." Visit the Rose Shave Gallery with 49 paintings by a most talented Nunda artist who worked from about 1875 to 1925. Purchase books on local history, our annual Nunda Historical Society Calendar, Rose Shave or Nunda Town note cards, Rose Shave Prints, or our lovely Nunda Tapestry Afghan.

We are back with more of the "Extracurricular" section of Nunda Central School's 1957 yearbook. Actually, we are starting what the very next year would become a separate section called Sports!

For some of the teams we will first show the entire page, followed by a closeup of the athletes.

Enjoy!

We have been working hard preparing our NHS 2027 Historical Calendar—“Kodachrome Memories…Scenes from Nunda’s Color-Slide Era.” This full-color calendar will go on sale during Christmas in Nunda on Saturday, December 12. Watch for details!

We came across this interesting slide taken by Roy Gath during the 1966 Fun Days Parade in our collection, and we need your help! Can anyone identify any of these musicians or tell us which band they were part of?

Please share any names or memories in the comments!
