The Hanover County Black Heritage Society

The Hanover County Black Heritage seeks to uncover and preserve the history of African Americans in Hanover County and the Town of Ashland and to help enrich and promote stronger family and community unity through historical findings. The Society’s goal is to educate the public by increasing awareness and appreciation of Hanover’s legacy.

HCBHS is located inside the Hanover Branch of the Pamunkey Regional Library in the Courthouse Complex.
