Preserving History
Finding out and sharing the history of Kenmore and district helps provide a sense of continuity for a busy suburban community. Whilst not everyone wants to immerse themselves in historic research, most people are really interested to find out how the suburb operated as a farming community until the housing estates commenced in the 1950s. And, others who have lived in Kenmore for decades have a strong role in sharing their memories and photographs of life in the then ‘outer suburb’.
Kenmore and District Historical Society hopes to achieve on-going preservation and presentation of this history.
