About Summit Historical Society
The mission of the Summit Historical Society is to preserve records, documents, books and artifacts relating to the history of Summit and surrounding area as well as the Carter House, the oldest house in Summit. Once preserved, we compile and disseminate this information to the public through public access to our archives, educational programs and maintenance of the Carter House as a public museum dedicated to the history of Summit. As we are continually adding new items to the Carter House Museum and our archives, we welcome donations of materials relating to Summit’s past.
