Artifact of the Month

A white picket fence!

This fancy picket fence had pickets two inches square with corner posts that were boxed in over a foot square with the tops built up in fancy shapes.

It surrounded the home of Squire Hoadly at 327 South Main Street which was also the home of Art Nelson at one time. The picket fence is gone. What about the house?

The house in the distance belonged to J.R. Bird and was built in the 1860s. Mr. Bird was a prominent banker in town.

The Mission of the Flagg Township Historical Society and Museum is to stimulate interest in Flagg Township history through education, research, collection and preservation of information for the benefit of the public of today and in the future.
