It was used as a home in about 1910 my grandfather and his family lived in the house. I have visited the house twice. In 1985 I took my grandfather to see the house and there were pictures of his family on display. There person working at the house on that day was familiar with some of the family history when it was used as a house. I went back to visit in 1994 and could no longer find pictures of my grandfather's family and the person working at the house was much younger and had no idea about the school being previously used as a home in 1910.

What a cool piece of family history! I know that the museum has grown in terms of the content inside by quite a bit, and people are always donating more things. I am sure your family information is still there somewhere. The more attention we can bring to it, the more successful hey can be in the future as well. Thanks for checking out my video! ✌️

@@wanderbeard It may be awhile before I return. If you come across anything the family name was Johnston. My great grandfather I believe worked in the mine. My grandfather's name was William Johnston. I believe my grandfather had 7 brothers and sisters. When I was there in 1985 with my grandfather, we saw pictures of his family on display. Today you have a lot more stuff on display that looks like general Dominion history. It is great that you keep the museum operating. Thank you.

My family is still back in Dominion. Next time they drop by, I'll see if they can find anything for you. All the best!
