The Stahlman FamilyThe Stahlman Library

The Stahlman Library is located on the second floor of the museum. The research library was established in honor of Jim Stahlman who, along with his wife Peg, founded the Plymouth Historical Society in 1990. The library resources may be viewed in-house. Because the library contains rare and unique collections, we do not allow items to be removed or checked out.

The library collection includes:

  • Plymouth High School Year books
  • City of Plymouth and Sheboygan County Historical Reference books
  • Books relating to Abraham Lincoln and George Washington
  • The Henry Huson Collection (Autographed books from 1870 Henry H. Huson home)
  • Historical Books with topics relating to the surrounding area
  • Early geography publications
  • Many publications related to the Civil War
  • Early photographs of Plymouth High School classes
  • Cemetery records
  • Clara Steinecker Collection
    The Clara Steinecker collection is comprised of extensive educational materials utilized in the local school systems. Mrs. Steinecker was a teacher, school administrator and author, who spent a lifetime collecting items such as globes,maps, attendance records, books and teaching aids.

The library is open to the public by calling the museum at (920) 893-1876. The society will gladly accept donations of local publications for use in the library.
