The historic documents website of the Topsfield Historical Society and the Topsfield Town Clerks Office is located at www.clubphoto.com, and type in Topsfield Historical Society where the site asks for alias.

The site is a collection of pages from the Town Clerk's Archives, with commentary. There is a Civil War group of images describing the Topsfield "Homefront". There is a contemporary manuscript copy of the Declaration of Independence. Early records of the Overseers of the Poor illustrate sincere efforts to aid the unfortunate, but also reveal the poverty and lack of effective medical treatment that was common two hundred years ago. There are a few documents on the Women's Suffrage Movement in the 1880's. There is a contemporary copy of the Topsfield Indian Treaty of 1701. There are documents about the Topsfield package liquor store of the 1860's and a letter from Massachusetts Anti-Cigarette League dating from the early 20th century, and much more.
