Dalton Community Historical
Museum (continued)
It was moved to the present
site in 1979 by the Historical Society which had
received a major contribution from Mrs. Mary Wertz
Williams, a former Dalton resident who lived in
Three Forks, Montana. She passed away December
22, 1984 at the age of 94.
Only part of the building was
salvageable since two additions added later were
in a state of ruin. Over the years siding has
been used to cover the logs. The building was
completely renovated inside and out. An iron fence,
installed in front was formerly at the Dalton
Cemetery. Useable pieces were welded by the late
Cullen McFarren to make it what it is today. Members
donated the labor for the renovations.
