After a hiatus of a couple months, the statewide list of State Historic Markers is back on the State Museum website. It is in a totally new format, easily searchable by county, with the full text displayed as it appears on the marker, and location data also provided.

This is a database of the 2,800+ "State" markers - erected with state funds in the early years of the program. It does not include private markers yet, but the database will be expanded as time goes by.
