HISTORY CENTER OF EASTERN LINCOLN COUNTY 


The History Center located in the Mundy House Annex is a treasure trove of books, pictures and other information on local veterans, families, buildings and homes in eastern Lincoln County. We want to be a resource for families, students and citizens to research eastern Lincoln County history.

We have a large database of information on local veterans including where possible a picture, branch of service, years of service, rank and other facts related to the veterans’ service. – For our annual Veterans’ Day dinner we publish a booklet on veterans we have added to our database
