Welcome to the Eva Brook Donly Museum and Archives – your # 1 year-round destination for information and events on the people, places, heritage and history of Norfolk County.
With hundreds of family histories, thousands of photographs, miles of microfilm and countless other indexed resources you will find the Eva Brook Donly Museum & Archives to be a treasure trove of valuable information and materials for the genealogist, the historian, the student and the tourist in everyone.
Visit our Archives where you can learn more about the United Empire Loyalist families who settled in this area in the 1790s, and trace their descendants into the 20th century.
Visit our Museum where you can see and learn about Norfolk’s famous Witch Doctor, and marvel at the prolific talent of local artists W. Edgar Cantelon and our own Eva Brook Donly.
Visit Simcoe where you can learn about and even see one of the Alligators that once roamed the town's streets and waterways.
Meanwhile - welcome to our site and, just like the settlers of old Norfolk County . . .
... enjoy exploring!
