Wow I love museums Ron. I would have to look through all the stuff there. Ty Cobb was from your area? One of the best to ever play the game.

Thanks for the pics!

Neil,I was going through a box like a cold case file.In this box the gentleman's life, service discharge records,family photos and other important events.There was an old cap and ball pistol in the box also.At the bottom of the box looked like someone spilled black pepper,which was gunpowder.We got rid of the gun powder.Anyway asked Daryl? which cemetery was Old George buried in, he said cemetery hill,one of the photos shown in post, which I pass daily.In the basement is another bank vault which has the old city and township records which they let the pubic look through at their request. Thanks Ron
