    A Great Gift Idea

                                                                             

                                                                        Over the past few years, we have enjoyed stories

                                                                         about the history of  Rush County written by our Rush

                                                                        County Historian,  John Wilson.  Many of these stories

                                                                        have appeared in our Newsletters and local news-

                                                                        papers.  Several people have encouraged John to

                                                                        compile these wonderful stories into a book.  Now,

                                                                        after many long hours of hard work, that book is now

                                                                        available for us to read and learn about our

                                                                        rich Rush County history.

​

                                                                        The Museum has books available at this time. Mocha

                                                                        Moose and Elizabeth's  carries this book as well.

Rush County Bicentennial, A Historic Perspective, 1822-2022  are $25.  This is a large, hard bound book featuring 30 stories with color photographs illustrations.
