The Marcus Historical Society has been being formed as a nonprofit organization. It plans to capture the years of our ancestors.

That history is like the shadow of a high-flying cloud moving over the landscape on a summer day. It’s difficult to rein in.

But once we forget, we kill our ancestors once and for all. To not remember them and their accomplishments in Marcus is to state that they did not—and we do not—exist.

For we are the products of their toil. We are the beneficiaries of their work. The Society will collect and capture the past, knowing that we are simply part of the story that started before we arrived on the scene, the story in which we are but a chapter, the story that will finish long after we have gone.

As we sail swiftly into an uncharted future, we must take with us glimpses of the past, the only compass that can give us our bearing. Join the Society now and help out on the journey! Your membership is tax deductible.
