In addition, our Proudly They Served folder lists thousands of people who served in the various wars from our area and History in Newspapers covers news account of historical events in our area as well as a large number of obituaries and marriages for genealogists. Society houses an upstairs museum featuring a Conestoga Wagon on display. Downstairs gallery features revolving exhibts. Other buildings on site include a Blacksmith Shop, Atkinson log house, Cellar Museum Gift Shoppe and Harnish Stone House. Mid April - December, Saturday and Sunday, 1:00 p.m. - 4:00 p.m.
