Welcome to the Ferndale Historical Society, Operators of the Ferndale Historical Museum located in Ferndale, Michigan.
When the state of Michigan became interested in historic buildings in 1973, the City of Ferndale established a Historical Study Commission. Maurice F. Cole, James Avery, June Kotlarek, Vincent Lupo and Thomas O’Donoghue were appointed as Charter members in 1974. Mr. Lupo resigned a few weeks later and Mr. O’Donoghue resigned due to health concerns.
The first Ferndale Historical Society was founded on February 21, 1977, but it became inactive by August 1980. The Historical Study Commission was still active.
The Canadian Legion donated their building to the City of Ferndale "to be used for the good of the community" in 1979. On February 23, 1981, a city council resolution passed would allow the donated building to be used as the Ferndale Historical Museum and Town Center provided that renovations estimated around $20,000 were completed without cost to the city.
