The Historic Canterbury Women’s Committee, part of the Canterbury Historical Society, is focused on Canterbury women and bringing their stories into the light. 

Our vision is to bring these stories of Canterbury Women to everyone as part of the Tricentennial Celebrations. We are seeking to discover and preserve their contribution to our town’s heritage. Once you start looking, amazing stories emerge and evolve!

If you have letters, photographs, or memories of Canterbury women, reaching out via email is the first step to ensuring those legacies aren’t lost to time. Please Email us at: historiccanterburywomen@gmail.com 

Check-out the Canterbury Historical Society’s website as stories may start to appear! CHS has indeed been very active lately, with a wealth of new stories, feature articles, latest news, and project updates. It’s definitely worth a regular visit as we ramp up for the big 2027 Tricentennial Celebrations!
