The Adair County Historical Society Museum in Kirksville, Missouri has artifacts, information, and genealogy about people, places, & things in Adair County
We preserve artifacts, histories, and genealogy of people, places, and things in Adair County, Missouri. The Adair County Historical Society was organized in 1916 in Kirksville, Missouri. Our museum building was also constructed in 1916 but was not made for us. It was designed for the women's literary and civic club called the Sojourners Club which was founded in Kirksville. They maintained the only public library in Kirksville in this building for 80 years. When Adair County finally built a public library, this building was sold to the Historical Society.
