Organized in 1970 as the "Morgantown/Caernarvon Historical Society," its purpose was to plan the activities for Caernarvon Township, Berks County's bicentennial celebration. Officers and committees were established to bring about the appropriate festivities for all the celebrations to be held in Morgantown. After the bicentennial celebration and later the Tricentennial celebration, the group of officers establish themselves, with the blessing of the township supervisors, as an all volunteer, nonprofit historical organization to collect, document and preserve the history and heritage of Caernarvon Township, Berks County.
For twenty years the Morgantown/Caernarvon Historical Society fulfilled this goal by researching the area's history and collecting and organizing information directly pertaining to that areas history and heritage. The Society's newsletter, "The LOCAL HISTORIAN," was born out of this effort. It was mailed to all Society members on a bi-yearly basis. This publication, still in existence, is written and published by volunteer Society staff; printing and mailing is funded by local businesses. Membership grew as a result. The LOCAL HISTORIAN publication was increased to a quarterly publication in 199?
