Glass Case Holds Halton Heritage Nucleus in Milton
A dust filled glass case in Milton’s courthouse foyer houses 26 Halton relics dating before World War I. The neglected display, dating to May 2 1935, links pioneers with today through items like a 1826 Bible, Indian relics, a milk bowl, a carved loom shuttle, and a four foot tin horn. Efforts by local women’s groups once sparked interest, but no action followed. the future of the proposed Halton County Museum hinges on renewed community support and archival care.
