Historical Information

The Zuni Historical Society in Isle of Wight County, Virginia was organized in 2009. Its mission was to collect and preserve all historical material associated with the village of Zuni, promote research and publish findings regarding the history, architecture, arts, crafts, culture, and genealogy of the area, preserve historic sites and buildings and encourage owners of properties in their preservation and restoration, and to establish a museum for the display, study, and preservation of records and artifacts. The Society was disbanded in 2015.

 Scope and Content

Collection, 1900-2015, of the Zuni Historical Society in Isle of Wight County, Virginia, including a secretary's book containing minutes, as well as materials collected by the Society for a proposed museum, including calendars, clippings, genealogical notes on the Chapman, Raney, and Sadler families, miscellaneous notes and research, newsletters, obituaries and funeral programs, photographs, store ledgers of Robert A. Horne (1877-1941), and papers of the Bradshaw and Joyner families.
