Marissa Historical & Genealogy
The Marissa Historical and Genealogical Society, established in 1969, is dedicated to aiding individuals in their family research endeavors and preserving historical records and cultural heritage. With a commitment to educational purposes, the society offers a range of resources, including used and new books for sale, as well as regular informational meetings for its members.
Located in the charming Village of Marissa, Illinois, the society honors the area's rich history, dating back to the early 1800s when farmers first settled in the region. Notably, Marissa is the only place in the world bearing the name, chosen by the village's first postmaster, James Wilson Jr., inspired by historical references to the ancient city of Mareshah.
