Donations Needed!We have many local resources available for research at our research library and museum due to generous donations over the years. Two things very helpful and interesting to genealogical researchers are needed--Saco River Telegraph & Telephone phone books before 1965 and Bonny Eagle High School yearbooks. It you have either of these items or know of someone who might donate them we would be very glad to accept them for our collection and future use!
