Biographical history
The Nanooa Historical and Museum Society was established in 1981 to collect, preserve and display photographs, artifacts and other material pertaining to the early history of Nanoose Bay and area. The Society compiled historical information on pioneer families and businesses and operated a museum. After the death of George Butler, the first president of the Society, in 1989, the Society discontinued its museum operations and amalgamated with the Parksville & District Historical Society, at the time known as District 69 Historical Society, in Parksville B.C.
