The Dedham Historical Society and Museum is a historical society dedicated to preserve and establish a greater sense of appreciation for the history of Dedham, Massachusetts.〔 It consists of a museum and an archive. , it had nearly 1,000 members.〔
==History==
As early as 1853, Henry Orin Hildreth was calling for the creation of a historical society dedicated to the history of Dedham.〔 On February 1, 1859, Hildreth, along with Calvin Guild, Danforth Phipps Wight, Jonathan Holmes Cobb, Francis Marsh, and William Bulliard met in the office of the Dedham Institution for Savings to form an organization dedicated to "preserving and transmitting to posterity all possible memorials of past and present times."〔
At the first meeting Wight was chosen chairman and Guild secretary.〔 A committee was then appointed consisting of Bullard, Hildreth, and Guild to draft the Constitution and by laws.〔 These were adopted at the next meeting, on February 15.〔 The founders then invited 41 citizens of Dedham to join the Society, but only 22 accepted.〔 At the end of the first year 37 members were enrolled, and by 1890 there were 147 members, including several women, the first of whom were admitted on December 1, 1886.〔〔
The first regular meeting was held on March 10, 1859 and the officers chosen were the Rev. Alvan Lamson as president, Wight as vice president, Hildreth as corresponding secretary, and Guild as recording secretary, treasurer, and librarian. Additionally, Cobb, Bullard, and Waldo Colburn were selected as curators, and Enos Foord and Henry White Richards were elected auditors.〔 Three years later, on April 23, 1862 the Great and General Court passed an Act incorporating the Society for the “purposes of collecting and preserving such books, newspapers, records, pamphlets and traditions, as may tend to illustrate and perpetuate the history of New England, and especially the history of the town of Dedham.”〔〔 The Act was accepted on the 9th day of the following June.〔
Before the adoption of the new by laws on March 2, 1887, quarterly meetings were held at which papers were read on subjects relating to Dedham.〔 At a special meeting was held in the Vestry of the First Church on September 14, 1885, to celebrate the 250th Anniversary of the settlement of the town, at which time "interesting historical sketches were read by several members."〔
Today the Society is a 501(c)(3) charity.〔 The public, but not official, name of the organization was changed in 2013 to become the Dedham Historical Society & Museum.〔
