  Finally got to visit the museum part of this facility. The display area is mostly on the first floor but it is dense with information. They also have one of the original copies of the Declaration of Independence.

  We visited the JFK library and new the Massachusetts Archive was nearby. When we approached it looked closed due to all the construction. We took a chance and went inside. The staff was very excited to see us. (I think the construction has affected visitors) The staff was very welcoming and offered us personal tour of archive. The exhibits are fascinating. The documents in the archives are incredible. They have one of the original copies of the Declaration of Independence. Also, a copper etching of the Boston Massacre by Paul Revere. Ask them how they got it. The story is cool.
  Admission is free.

  Visited the archives for genealogical purposes. The facilities are beautiful and state-of-the-art, and the librarian with whom I consulted was very patient and knowledgeable on each of the various, and very specific, subjects I requested info on. I highly recommend a visit here if you are seeking records or documentation on your ancestors. You will undoubtedly discover such a wealth of information and ease of access, the hours will seem to pass very quickly here!
