Jones
Historical Society - Help US Tell
The Story
The Jones
Oklahoma Historical Society museum
is currently undergoing a renovation
and we would greatly appreciate your
assistance in expanding our
collection, especially in the
following areas:
If you have
any artifacts, or most especially
PHOTOs, we would appreciate very
much if you could loan them to us
for scanning and copying. We have
almost nothing from the 1920's, 30's
and 40's and only a little form the
50's.
-
Jones High School -
While we have nice
State Center
collection, we have
very few artifacts
and photos of high
school life and
alumni from before
the 1960's. Most
prized are group,
club, team and
special occasion
photos.
-
Town life and
residents - Examples
would be street
scenes, clubs and
organizations,
festivals and
special events.
-
Military - While we
have a good start on
our collection of
veterans, we have
almost nothing of
women, wives, and
sweethearts that
served at home or
abroad. Pictures of
men with their
significant other
would be great
additions to the
collection. Also
needed are photos of
the WWI and Korean
era.
Artifacts and
photos can be given to the museum
permanently or on loan. All photos
will be promptly scanned and
returned to the owners.
If you have
anything you would be willing to
share, please feel free to contact
us at any time.
