Welcome

As president of the Grantham Historical Society, I am very pleased to welcome you to our new Web site. The historical society is dedicated to preserving the history of our town from its founding to the present and — perhaps — sometimes trying to predict the future. This Web site is a work in progress, and we’ll hope you come back and visit us, both online and in person, often. 

Allen Walker

Congratulations, Allen Walker
