Weehawken Historical Commission
The Weehawken Historical Commission was established in 1997, with members appointed by Mayor Richard F. Turner. Our first task was to catalog historical documents, photographs and other items that were stored in the Weehawken Public Library. Since that time, we have accumulated many hundreds of new pieces of memorabilia through donations by residents and others who now live outside the township, but still feel a strong connection to their home town. We are always pleased to receive these additions to the collection.
Our mission is to preserve and share Weehawken's history, which, for such a small place, has had an enormous wealth of happenings, not only interesting to its own residents, but on a national level as well. We are working to digitize all items in our collection, as well as to update current entries. We would be pleased to accept donations of new material from the public and will be happy to credit the donations - secure your place in Weehawken history!
