Staunton's Historic Preservation



Mining Display

On Saturday morning, April 30, 2005, several members of Staunton's Historic Preservation Commission and the Macoupin County Genealogical Society gathered at Staunton Public Library to put together a display (click on "display" to see picture) of mining memorabilia from Staunton area mines.

This display is in celebration of Preservation Month. The ultimate hope is that citizens with ties to the mining industry in Staunton will provide us with more items and stories, and join our efforts to create a Staunton Museum.

In future months, we hope to put together other historical displays to share our rich history with our citizens. Do you have anything to contribute? If so, contact Cindy Leonard at 618-635-8506; leonardc@madisontelco.com or Lil Ashley at 618-635-2477.

Stop by and see the display during regular library hours in the month of May.
