Welcome to the Hatfield Historical Museum Catablog — a working project.

The Hatfield Historical Museum holds an extensive collection of archives and memorabilia from the 17th to the 21st centuries that help tell the story of Hatfield, MA, founded in 1670. On an ongoing basis, volunteers and staff will work to describe our collections and post them here — but there is never enough time! If you’d like to volunteer, reach out to the museum’s curator to explore options, at: hatfieldhistoricalsociety@gmail.com.

So far, we have brief descriptions of just several collections posted. Click the Collection categories box at right to check them out.

Also, when this database was first created, the banner field below was created by someone other than us, and sadly, we never got edit access to correct the typos. The address SHOULD read:

The Hatfield Historical Museum, 39 Main St., Hatfield, MA, 01038.

And since neither the Hatfield Historical Society (in MA, not the one in PA), nor the Hatfield Historical Museum has a phone, the best way to reach someone is via the gmail email address above. Thanks for your understanding!
