Gear for Gifts to Halton Museum

The Halton County museum project moves forward as the Mune cum Board of operation met in Milton County courthouse. Howard Groh and son Don Groh advised the board at the Kelso Museum site and progress will be reviewed next Monday in Deon. An acquisition committee was formed to view and collect acceptable loaned articles, with each member reachable for donations and standard forms for accepting loans discussed. The Grohs praised the museum’s ideal location and predicted strong donor interest.

Alexander family ties Kelso farm to Halton museum

Roy Downs tells how the Kelso farm once owned by Adam Alexander and his descendants will become Halton County Museum. The 200 acre site near Milton Heights produced a water powered complex and barn, later restored by the Conservation Authority and opened as a historic exhibit. The Alexander line, from Scotland in 1806, endured hardship and pioneer work, with a famed water power system and a long, notable family history in the area.
