Business Description:
In 1982 a small group of Andover residents decided that Andover needed a formalized Historical Society to preserve and conserve the history of the town. Part of the impetus for their movement was the donation of an early settler's canoe that had been found in Hopkins Pond in Andover two years before. The Society was incorporated in 1982. In 1983 the Potter Place Railroad Station was donated to the Society. In 1989 the station was accepted in the National Register of Historic Places.
