The Hawthorne Historical Society Inc. is a non-profit organization dedicated to preserving the history of Hawthorne, New Jersey. Founded in 1977, the society has amassed an extensive collection of artifacts, photographs, and documents related to the town's history.

The society operates out of the Samuel Van Winkle House, a historic building that was once home to one of Hawthorne's prominent families. The house has been restored to its original 19th-century appearance and serves as a museum and research center for the society's collection.

The society hosts regular events and programs for the community, including lectures, walking tours, and exhibits. They also offer educational resources for local schools and organizations.

One of the society's major projects is the restoration of the Goffle Brook Schoolhouse, a one-room schoolhouse built in 1875. The society has been working to preserve and restore the building to its original condition, and it now serves as a living history museum for visitors.

Overall, the Hawthorne Historical Society Inc. plays an important role in preserving and sharing the rich history of Hawthorne, New Jersey, and its surrounding communities.
