Archives & Research Library

The Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse and Museum is home to the Loxahatchee River Historical Society Archives & Research Library – a comprehensive research facility offering extensive information detailing the early history of the Jupiter area through present day. Collections from early pioneer families include the Aicher, Carlin, Bessie Wilson DuBois and Neil DuBois. Other collections include the McGinty Shell, Spencer & Armour Stereoviews and Durham Collection to name a few. We are actively seeking artifacts, photographs, letters, manuscripts, genealogies and yearbooks having to do with the Jupiter area.
