or want to look into it but have never tried. All ages are welcome!!

 There are many resources at the museum, including over 100 years of Dunn County newspapers,
an extensive Oral History collection, many homestead records, a library with local history books,
 photos and other archived memorabilia, making this the logical place to meet.
The museum welcomes additions to this collection if you are willing to share any family memorabilia!

The museum will be open on Sunday afternoons, 1PM to 5PM MT, for the Winter.
 Folks are welcome to do genealogy research here during those hours.
