Research at the Wilkes Heritage Museum

I work in Wilkesboro at the Wilkes Heritage Museum which offers an impressive 20,000 square feet of exhibits throughout the old courthouse, the 1859 jail, and the Robert Cleveland house. Everyone who visits is amazed at the wide-variety of artifacts that are on display to tell the story of the county's history. Information on touring the museum is available on the Wilkes Heritage Museum website. But that's not all the museum offers.


The Wilkes Heritage Museum occupies the old Wilkes County Courthouse.

Many people aren't aware that the museum also offers a variety of resources for researching genealogy and Wilkes County history. As the museum is a non-profit organization, a donation is requested for these services. It's important that you call ahead before visiting to be sure that staff will be available to help you find what you need.

Here are some of the research tools that are available at the museum:
