Wallaceburg and District Museum : ウィキペディア英語版 | Wallaceburg and District Museum
The Wallaceburg and District Museum is located in Southern Ontario in the town of Wallaceburg. Located a half-block from the banks of the Sydenham River, the museum occupies the former Wallaceburg Hydro Office at 505 King Street. The museum opened on June 29, 1984. The Wallaceburg and District Historical Society were the founders led by the father and son pair of Frank and Alan Mann. The two men are known around the Wallaceburg area for their hard work and dedication to local history. A number of other original founders are still involved on the museum's governing board. ==Site history== The location is historic not just for the artifacts it houses but because it has a history of its own. The land is the site of the first Wallaceburg Town Hall. John Mcgregor, a war veteran, donated the land after he was given in the surrounding area for his services to the crown in the War of 1812. The only stipulation Mcgregor gave upon the donation of the land was that it only be used for municipal purposes. For that reason it has served Wallaceburg as a town hall, Hydro Building, theatre and museum.〔(Wallaceburg and District Museum )〕
