Port Huron Area History & Preservation Association

-----------------------------

Our mission is to
Bring history to life in the Port Huron Area

Through
Information. Inspiration. Investigation. Involvement.

We provide visitors with information about the history and architecture of Port Huron and its surrounding communities: Township of Fort Gratiot, Township of Port Huron, and Marysville. Historic Preservation laws, regulations, agencies, organizations, and other related helps can be found at this site. We exist to serve the individuals and organizations in the communities listed, assisting with history property research and preservation questions. Serving the region's history interests through a professional journal will also be a goal and project of this group. Incorporation and federal 501(c)3 status are coming soon.

For more information, or to provide information or support of any kind, please use one of the contact forms found throughout the site. Thank you!
