The Stone County Historical Genealogical Society Museum will put our travels through Stone County History on hold to feature current items of interest.
It's “Christmas in July" at the Museum. Stop by and browse our book nook. You will find Stone County History Books I, II and III, along with pictorial books. What a wonderful Christmas gift for a family member to cherish.
The book nook carries books galore! You will find books by local authors on a variety of subjects, as well as pen and ink prints by a local artist, historic post cards, cookbooks, and the history of Lawrence and Barry counties from the year 1888.
Appreciation to the City of Crane!
The Stone County Historical Genealogical Society and Museum Board of Directors and Society members would like to express their sincere thanks and appreciation to the City of Crane for providing a rent free building with utilities for the Stone County Historical Museum. The city has provided the building for seven years! Without this contribution, the county would not have a facility to store and maintain Stone County History and Heritage.
Salute to American Legion Post 413 - District
The Stone County Historical Genealogical Society and Museum is a nonprofit organization. Through donations and fundraising, they were able to purchase (at an excellent price) the historic American Legion building, across from green space and next door to the Museum. This provides the opportunity to expand and offer an event center to the community. Our appreciation to the American Legion and a huge salute to each of you this 4th of July for your service.
Museum hours are Thursday-Friday: 10 a.m. to p.m.; Saturday: 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
