Phillips County Museum News for December 9, 2015

Who says “history is boring?” Every day at the PC Museum is exciting and different. Last week a genealogy request started the staff scrambling for answers about a man named “Tennessee Jones.” What we found was a love triangle shooting, whiskey running, and a man hiding out in Montana. In addition, there were several Phillips County residents that had tidbits about Tennessee Jones. He was definitely one of those unique Montana transplants. I hope you are a PC Historical Society member as the story will be in the next “Time Traveler" newsletter, which goes to print at the end of December.

Another Christmas Festival has come and gone at the PC Museum. Thanks to the “Community” for your generous support. The PC Museum and Historical are pleased they can offer this fun evening to everyone. The museum will be open until the end of December Monday through Saturday. And if you are looking for that unique gift – check out our gift shop it’s one of the best in the state!
