Gary TAYLOR WV 2020
so much valuable history to be looked at here the old jail was amazing to look at from the early nineteen hundreds Betty the tour guide was so nice and very knowledgeable about everything it would be worth your time to stop by and take the tour it is decorated for the holiday season stop by and take a look it's beautiful

This museum is in an old house which used to be the county's sheriff's ex officio residence. The wrought iron bannister and other details of the century-old house are worth a look, and it's filled with old furniture, tools, and some clothes with connections to local families. One of the nice staffers will be pleased to guide you into the upper floor of the Marion County jail. There is no need to fly to Alcatraz when you can see similar incarceration technology right here. One can pass a very pleasant hour at this museum, and a curious teenager can learn a lot about old-timey stuff.
