For over a century, people have written about or photographed the Bell Farm.

Today, we strive to discover lost documents and to share these with the residents of the Indian Head region and with website readers throughout the world.

The Bell Barn Society has rolled out an Eductional Program for Teachers suitable for Divisions One & Two.

We greatly appreciate the financial and in-kind contributions that people and agencies have made and continue to make the Bell Barn Project Possible. Please make your donations to:

Virtual Archives

Welcome to the Archives portion of our website.

Here you will find copies of historical documents and photographs that relate to the Bell Farm and its subsequent owners covering over 125 years of the Farm's history. As well, you may find some comments about the items on display, and information on where they may be found for further examination.

The Bell Farm records displayed here are located in various public archives and museums, as well as with private owners. If the SOURCE is listed as "Private", the document is in private hands and not available for direct public inspection. Nevertheless, we appreciate that these records have been made available for public use and enjoyment through this website.

If you have any comments on any specific document, or have an item that you would like to contribute to the Bell Farm Virtual Archives, please contact:
