The Rabun County Historical Society has an extensive collection of historical photos. Only a portion of our photos is exhibited here. Most were given to us from family albums or by private collectors. We have even purchased photos from archive collections. Many of our photos are unidentified, that is we cannot be certain when or where they were taken or we cannot identify people in the photos. If you find errors or if you can elaborate on the text included with the photos, we welcome your comments.
Images from your photo collection could be displayed here, too. We are always looking for photos that would be of interest to visitors to our website.
