The Boothbay Region Historical Society is located at the 1874 Elizabeth F. Reed house and its grounds, Fullerton Park. Many of the furnishings in the museum in the building were Reed family heirlooms. The society has traditionally represented the three towns in the region: Boothbay, Boothbay Harbor, and Southport, though Southport is now ably represented by its own society. The museum displays local historical mementos and houses documentary collections. The society is governed by a board of trustees and has a part-time director and administrative assistant. It is supported by membership dues, book and map sales, and donations. Among the benefits of membership are newsletters and a reduction in the cost of purchases. We encourage people to consider membership in the society and join the effort to preserve the past.
