Think of us this Giving Tuesday

December 2 is Giving Tuesday and we’re using the occasion to launch our 2026 fundraising campaign.

Why are we fundraising?

We remain incredibly grateful for the amazing bequest of Marilyn Adams that inspired and created the Marilyn Adams Genealogical Research Centre. While the income from that bequest continues to be our major source of funding, we still need to rely on the generosity of our members, visitors and others to ensure we can cover our operating costs, continue to provide services to family researchers, and plan for growth.

How your donation can help:

  • $50 covers office supplies for a month
  • $100 pays for our Picton fair booth
  • $500 covers our web hosting services for a year
  • $1000 covers our advertising costs for a year

Our fundraising goal for 2026 is just $2000 (of course, we’d be thrilled to go beyond that). Visit our fundraising page at Canada Helps to see how we’re doing and donate now.

Passing the baton

Erin McFaul Davis takes over as President of Seventh Town Historical Society

After the Annual General Meeting of members, Erin McFaul Davis formally took over as president of Seventh Town Historical Society from Beverly Sprague, who held the position for the past five years.

In Sprague’s farewell remarks to members in attendance, she thanked all those who supported her during her tenure and promised to continue as an active volunteer for STHS and become an advocate for promoting heritage as a Prince Edward County asset.

Davis expressed admiration for the volunteers of STHS and hopes to build on the accomplishments of the past five years by spurring growth in community outreach and engagement programs.
