Formed April 1, 1999 in Sedan, Chautauqua County, Kansas by a group of people interested in preserving the heritage
of their ancestors and generations to come.
On April 1, 1999 a small group of people met at the Sedan State Bank to
see if there was enough interest in organizing a society, much to their surprise there was. Those who met April 1, 1999 for
the very first meeting were:
Vera Miller, Renee Green, Del Huggins, Elaine Keeny, Linda Kline, James Moon, Nina Moon,
Carlotta Munson, Harold Munson, Anita Pitts, Don Pitts and Freida Wells.
So it was voted that on that day , the Chautauqua
County Historical and Genealogical Society would be organized.

Miller President, Del Huggins Vice President, Carlotta Munson Secretary, Cheryl Hurst Treasurer.
