Newton County Historical Society

The Newton County Archives, located in Decatur, Mississippi, is a historic building that houses a growing collection of print materials, including books, booklets, and filing cabinets, covering various categories such as cemetery records, census records, church histories, court records, family histories, marriage records, military records, and Mississippi and Newton County history. The Archives also features a special collection of genealogical materials, as well as a collection of non-print materials, including old photographs, CDs, and DVDs.

Open Monday through Friday, with additional hours on the first and third Saturday of each month, the Archives is staffed by dedicated volunteers who provide access to the materials and offer assistance to researchers. Visitors can explore the collection housed in the building and access online resources, while copies of printed materials are available for a small fee. With a growing membership and visitors from various cities in Mississippi and other states, the Newton County Archives continues to expand its collection and serve as a valuable resource for historical research.
