The Webster Digital Archive is still growing, but it already contains thousands of photos, the older history books, and many Town of Webster records.
Follow the links below to see items in the Archive on Google Drive. The top level folder is Artifacts. Most files contain metadata that add context to the photo, but you will need to download the file to a PC to view the metadata. The books are in PDF format, and the larger ones in particular may have to be downloaded to be viewed.
- Artifacts (Genealogy, Oral Histories, Photographs, Printed Material)
- Town of Webster Annual Reports and Town Hall Minutes
- For Society Business documents, see the Members Only page.
- For Trustee documents, see the Trustees Only page.
You should be able to view anything in the top level Artifacts folder and all its sub-folders. If you have problems, please use the Contact Us form on this website.

Photographs and Diaries Do you have old photographs or diaries about Webster?
The Society is primarily interested in photos at least 30 years old, but may accept any photos of Webster people, places or events. (We retain the right to refuse to accept or scan your items.) The Historical Society will scan them, preserve them in our digital archive, and share them on our website. You will retain the copyright to them, and your original photos will be returned to you along with a USB-drive of your photos.
Click on each picture in an album to see a larger version…or view them in a slide show. Be sure to click on the “i” (information) icon to see more information. If you would like a copy of any particular picture, contact the Society.
