Did you know that Norton County, Kansas, was the site of one of the biggest meteor impacts in the United States?
This is one of the things you can learn about with a visit to the Norton County Museum located in Norton County, Kansas.
We hope to offer many items of historical interest in our Home on the Web that will not only inform you about our unique history but also get you involved in preserving it. History means many things to different people. A common notion is that history is all about things that happened long ago which are not relevant to our lives. But history is a living thing that touches everyone alive today. Yesterday is history. Today we are making history. Tomorrow will soon become history.
The lives of our ancestors have an impact in many ways on our lives today. We at the Norton County Historical Society and the Norton County Museum hope you will join us in preserving the memories and artifacts of those who lived before and those who are living now. We encourage your membership and donations.
This web page is our link to our future and our past. We hope you will enjoy visiting our site and feel free to contact us with your views and suggestions for improvement.
The universe made a big impact on Norton County - together we can make an impact on the universe.
