Where to find us:

The Society is located in the historic 1818 Vance-Tousey House, home of Samuel C. Vance, Lawrenceburg’s founder. The house, set apart by its soaring spiral staircase and grand riverfront façade, is considered one of the finest examples of Federal architecture in the State of Indiana. Additionally, the Society is steward to the 1820 Angevine Log Cabin, located in the Society’s Pioneer Homestead across the street.
