The Historical Society of the North Central Jurisdiction was organized in 1948 and later became known as the North Central Jurisdiction Commission on Archives and History in the 1970s. The North Central Jurisdiction Commission on Archives and History serves the Dakotas, Minnesota, Iowa, Wisconsin, Northern Illinois, Illinois Great Rivers, Indiana, West Michigan, Detroit, West Ohio, and East Ohio Conferences.
