Whether you are a scholar, a teacher, a family historian, or simply have a curiosity for the past, a membership to HSP has something for you. As a member of HSP, you will receive admission to our world-class research library, with its abundance of primary sources.
We are proud to announce a new benefit for members: we have recently digitized more than 7 million Pennsylvania vital records that are now available for members to research online. This means that you will be able to access records from churches, parishes, cemeteries, burial grounds, undertakers, and funeral homes – all from the comfort of your own home! Your support will also help HSP protect and conserve the collection, ensuring that these historic documents and manuscripts can be enjoyed for years to come.
