The Dead River Historical Society Pays Tribute To Local Veterans

Over the years many local people have enlisted in the military, served their country well during war time and peace time, and have been a credit to their community. We would like to dedicate August 16th to those men and women.

Also Paper Talk magazine is featuring people who served in World War II from Franklin County in their up coming edition. We will have those forms available and all pertinent information as well. Their dead line is August 31st.

On display in the museum are artifacts, manuscripts, and photographs that have been donated or loaned by interested townspeople and descendants of original families of the Dead River Region.  Collections from 1850 on include old carpentry and logging tools, china, glass, church organ, furniture from native families, a complete schoolroom, a memorial room to the "lost" towns of Flagstaff and Dead River, the lineage of several native families, and a host of memorabilia from native homesteads.
