Jaffrey History Center Grand Opening on November 7
By Peter Lambert
After more than a year of hard work, the Jaffrey History Center – the new home of the Jaffrey Historical Society – will open it’s doors on November 7, 2026! This summer the new building was a beehive of activity. The inside was repainted by Dennis Wright in early July, who very generously donated all of the paint.

250th Anniversary of the Revolutionary War
As the United States recognizes the 250th anniversary of the Revolutionary War we take note of relevant items in the Jaffrey Historical Society archives.
The Diary of James Stevens, Revolutionary Soldier was published by the Committee on Jaffrey History in 1928. Copies are still available through the Jaffrey Historical Society. It can also be downloaded as a .pdf here.
There are also photos from the recent Bob Warfield recognition ceremony on our Smugmug site.
