In 1969, a small group of Rexton and Richibucto citizens formed a committee to create a historical society and museum. Following the construction of the new interpretative building in 1997, the Richibucto River Historical Society and Museum moved to its present location at the Bonar Law Common. The museum boasts an incredible amount of preserved documents and artefacts, and has a beautiful collection of portraits of former residents who have gone on to do great things, such as William Bowser, a Premier of British Columbia, and Andrew Bonar Law, the only Prime Minister of Great Britain to have been born outside the country.
