About The Lakewood Historical Society

The society operates the Oldest Stone House Museum, an 1834 stone house furnished to the mid-nineteenth century, and the Nicholson House, built in 1835 and available today as a rental facility. The society also provides a wide variety of services to the community, including award winning school programs, special events, public programs and historical research from our Society headquarters at the Haber Family Center for History where we operate our extensive library and archives.
