The Marceline Historical Society, a trademarked 501c3 nonprofit, is made up of members of the City of Marceline, local business owners, and others from around the country who have sworn and are dedicated to preserving the history of Marceline, Missouri.
We meet regularly to discuss local history, develop plans on how to collect, preserve, and share our history.
We are always looking for volunteers to help.
