About Conshohocken Historical Society

The Conshohocken Historical Society preserves the heritage of Conshohocken and surrounding areas through its collections and research. Housed in the Mary Wood Park House at its location in Conshohocken, the organization maintains historical documents, artifacts, and memorabilia related to the borough's past residents and accomplishments. Visitors can explore materials connected to Conshohocken's industrial history, including its role in southeastern Pennsylvania's development through major firms like the Alan Wood Iron and Steel Company and Lee of Conshohocken tire company. The Society welcomes visitors on Saturday mornings when a core group of volunteers meets at the office. People interested in local history, genealogy, or who possess photographs, genealogical records, or artifacts related to Conshohocken can connect with the organization. The Society's volunteer team manages collections, conducts research, and answers questions about the borough's rich heritage for both current and future generations.
