The historical society focuses on the Village of Clinton and surrounding area.[3] Its name is also used for the historic church building in which the society is headquartered. The building is listed on the National Register as a contributing building in the Clinton Village Historic District.[4] The society's building once had a conical steeple as it appears in a c.1900-1910 photo.[5]
