The Winnsboro Historical Museum is dedicated to the preservation and sharing of our community's unique history. Our digital content—including photography, researched articles, and archival scans—is a result of extensive professional labor and donor support. To ensure our history is shared accurately and fairly, we ask that all users adhere to the following guidelines:

​

Tier 1: Personal & Social Media Sharing

We encourage you to share our stories with your friends and family!

• The Rule: You may repost our images and content to your personal social media profiles.

• The Requirement: You must provide a clear credit line or tag our official account (e.g., "Photo courtesy of @WinnsboroTxMuseum" or "Information sourced from www.WinnsboroTxMuseum.com").

• Restriction: Images may not be cropped to remove watermarks or alter the historical context.

​

• The Requirement: Please contact admin@winnsborotxmuseum.com for a formal "Letter of Permission" and to ensure you have the highest resolution version available. A specific credit line provided by the museum must be used.
