This museum, established on May 18, 2005, by Sue and John Baldwin of Pollocksville, NC, (Jones County) is rather unique. In addition to three vintage Ford automobiles, the museum features home appliances and other "Things from Yesteryear." Most are over 100 years old. Many of the items pictured below have been gathered from garage sales. John Baldwin conducted the "Grand Opening Ceremony." Reverend Steve Simpson, Pastor of the River Bend Baptist Church, gave the invocation followed by introductions by Roy Fogle, Jones County Economic Development Consultant. Present were Commissioner Jessie Eubanks and Jones County Manager, Larry Meadows, who welcomed visitors. |
