What better way to kick off the historic 250th anniversary of America. The Mr. Local History website will achieve 1,000,000 visitors in 2026, an achievement we could only have dreamed about. We couldn’t have done it without the help and support of all our volunteer researchers and writers who try their best to preserve and promote stories that you enjoy reading.
The Mr. Local History project’s mission has always been to promote and preserve local history with a social twist. Based in the Somerset Hills, an area in northern Somerset County, New Jersey, the project is an all-volunteer registered 501c3 non-profit that creates social and educational programs and activities that strive to engage and educate in fun new ways throughout our beautiful and historic “Garden State.”
Mr. Local History announced its incorporation as a 501c3 non-profit organization back in 2019. By incorporating, the effort is now recognized as a legal entity to conduct business, organize, and develop fundraising efforts to support programs geared at preserving and promoting local history across New Jersey.

Based on a few numbers we’ve been gathering, we came up with an estimated date when we might hit 1,000,000 visitors to mrlocalhistory.org Our prediction target date is January 22, 2026.
