Who We Are
The Redbank Valley Historical Society, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to researching and preserving a factual and accurate history of the area comprising approximately the same area as the Redbank Valley School District. Having recently published our first book, Voices From The Redbank Valley, we are now endeavoring to establish a Redbank Area Heritage and Genealogy Center in New Bethlehem. The Center will collect and preserve artifacts pertinent to the history and genealogy of the area and display them for public use and enjoyment. From time to time we entertain guest speakers to present interesting subject matters of local history to the group. We will also conduct field trips to various places of historical interest to the group. The Redbank Valley Historical Society has open memberships to anyone who is interested in and willing and able to contribute to our society’s goals. We also have a shop chock-full of wonderful merchandise if you would like to support us by purchasing something, including our book.
