Inquiries and Research

The museum's collection includes archival papers of all kinds; land deeds, directories, maps, newspaper clippings, and genealogy materials.
The Carleton Place and Beckwith Historical Society and the Heritage Museum actively strive to locate information and research local landmarks and citizens.
