Brief history (When the American Historical Association (AHA) was founded in 1884, history had only recently emerged as a distinct academic discipline. At the 1884 meeting of the American Social Science Association, historians present voted to establish the American Historical Association as a separate organization. The central figure in this initiative was Herbert Baxter Adams, who became the first secretary of the AHA and remained so for the next sixteen years. In 1889, the association was incorporated in the District of Columbia by an act of Congress.) https://www.historians.org/about-aha-and-membership/aha-history-and-archives/brief-history-of-the-aha
