Cloyne District Historical Society

About The Cloyne Pioneer Museum and Archives

The Cloyne and District Society is a not-for profit, charitable, volunteer organization whose mandate is to preserve and record the history of the local area and to share that knowledge with the public.

The society's catchment area is the highway 41 corridor from Kaladar in the south to Denbigh and Griffith in the north, as was a Flinton and the west and Harlowe to the east.

Our collections, both in artifacts and document, reflect the history of this area beginning from settlement time in the 1850's, with emphasis on such themes as settlement and pioneer life, mining, logging, tourism and the building of the Addington Road. With its unique development across country lines, its economic challenges after the departure of the timbering businesses and its determination to remain viable, this community has much fascinating history to impact. In recent year, the addition of an archives has meant that family histories, photos, land deeds and other paper documents are available for researchers. Visit the Cloyne Pioneer Museum and Archives for more information.
