Collection
Description: Located on the second floor of the Library, the Marian Hunter History Room is dedicated to Marian M. Hunter, long-time librarian and historian of Avon. The collection was formed when the Library and the Avon Historical Society combined their archives and dedicated the room on February 4, 1989. It includes photographs, postcards, scrapbooks, maps, deeds, and other pieces of memorabilia. Researchers and interested residents may find information on the general history of the town, original old homes and buildings in Avon, and genealogies of original families.
