The Hafer Local History and Genealogy Room

The Hafer Local History and Genealogy Room was especially designed to house the Library’s important non-circulating historical and genealogical collections. Visitors are admitted upon presentation of a picture I.D. and are permitted to remain in the room only if accompanied by a member of the Library staff. Otherwise, materials are brought downstairs to be used in the Reference Room. Among the many items of interest are:

  • Massachusetts town and county histories
  • Family genealogies
  • Census, military and church records
  • Longmeadow Town Reports
  • Street lists
  • Diaries of the Reverend Stephen Williams
  • Obituaries (1992-present)
