overview : In 1918, Herbert S. Ford's sons brought home two German helmets from the city dump. This became the catalyst that prompted Ford to begin a collection of historical artifacts which are now housed in the Herbert S. Ford Museum.

collections : The museum today includes a chronological timeline from the arrival of the original settlers with an Indian period and a Pioneer period. An actual log cabin that was acquired in the late summer of 1982 from the George Green Estate was disassembled at its present location and reassembled inside the museum.
