Welcome to the W. S. Hancock Society

OUR MISSION

The W. S. Hancock Society is dedicated to educating the public about the
history and life of Major General Winfield Scott Hancock.

As part of our work, we provide interpretive and educational
outreach programs and historical consulting work for various private,
state and federal organizations throughout the United States,
as well as, serving as a support organization for those sites related to
the history and memory of Winfield Scott Hancock. This is accomplished
through a variety of media contacts, public living history demonstrations,
historical displays and fund raising efforts for the preservation and
restoration of these sites, structures and monuments.

In an ongoing attempt to remember his heroic deeds and honorable
dedication to the United States Constitution, we also conduct Memorial Day
services at his mausoleum in Montgomery Cemetery, Norristown, Pennsylvania
and at his headquarters' cannon located in Gettysburg National Military Park
every Remembrance Day.

As the W. S. Hancock Society, it is our pledge to pursue these endeavors accurately,
with the dignity and honor befitting this great American.
