The Brooks County Historical Board Collection documents the work of the Brooks County Historical Board, an African American-led organization founded to preserve, celebrate, and share the rich heritage of Black communities in Brooks County, Georgia. The Board brings together local leaders, alumni, and advocates committed to historic preservation, education, and public engagement—especially through efforts to safeguard landmarks, collect oral histories, and highlight the achievements of African American residents. In partnership with Valdosta State University Archives and Special Collections, this digital collection serves as a growing record of the Board’s activities and the community’s ongoing contributions. The collection currently features the Horne House Foundation series, with future additions anticipated as preservation efforts continue.
