Since the 1950s the Oakville Historical Society has placed plaques on older houses and buildings of historical interest. Our plaques typically tell the date of construction, the original (or early) owner or tenant and his or her occupation. This exhibit provides additional information on the plaqued homes and buildings and their occupants. There are also more photos of the houses, their former occupants and other archival items. Click on any image to get a larger view.
