Jersey County Historical Society Museum with our amazing tour guide and President of the society, Beth McGlasson.
Student Feedback: “The visit to the historical society was probably the most interesting visit for a history enthusiast like myself. I had no clue that we had so many schools at one point or were home to the first ever black armed forces pilots.”

If you have not been through the museum or taken a tour of the Cheney Mansion, we strongly encourage you to do so! The history of little ol’ Jersey County is beyond impressive and Beth is a wealth of knowledge that we are so lucky to have!

We also had the privilege to introduce students to our very own genealogy expert, Lois Lock. You would be challenged to find someone who has a better professional wardrobe than Lois. She also is an incredibly talented seamstress.

Beth brings the joy when she shares her historical knowledge. Students were truly captivated by all of the stories she shared and left with a great appreciation of their hometown.

Thank you, Beth!
