Jay Historical Society Living History Museum Opens
May 3, 2009
History came alive Saturday as the Jay Historical Society held a grand opening for their Living History Museum.
The Jay Historical Society, established in 2001, has worked for years to make their museum dream a reality in the old Cobb House at 3946 Highway 4 in Jay.
After a ribbon cutting, Saturday’s events include civil war reenactors, storytelling, candle dipping, quilters, an old farm display, musical entertainment and more.
Exhibits at the new museum include an old Victrola complete with records, yearbooks from the early 1950’s to the present from Jay and Allentown high schools, old cameras, an ice box (the kind that once used a block of ice) and even a gasoline powered washing machine.
For more information, call (850) 675-6480 or (850) 675-3772 or email jmd@erec.net.
