The Granville district has always been a thriving industrial, commercial and sporting area and the Society holds material about many aspects of life within the boundaries of the Borough of Granville.
St Mark's Anglican Church
The church registers from 1885 to 1934 are held on microfilm. Other church records held are plans of the buildings, early letters and documents together with over one hundred photographs of the church, its parishioners and events telling the history of St Mark's.
Holy Trinity Catholic Church
The church registers from 1886 to late 1900's are held on microfilm, telling the families of this denomination.
Family History Files
Over two hundred and thirty files of family histories and genealogy are available in the archives. These files are compiled from research inquiries resulting in archived material for many Granville District families.
