  • 🌟 Shiloh’s main museum building is getting its first major upgrade since it was built in 1991. While we look forward to providing a better visitor experience, we will have to close the building for the next few weeks to ensure that it happens.

In the meantime, we’re presenting an online workshop on how to research the history of your home for February 25, and we will be opening the doors to the public our 1871 Shiloh Meeting Hall in early March.

Stay tuned for further details. We’re building history!

  • πŸ“· We know it’s a πŸ€πŸ€πŸ€ long shot getting IDs on these young men, but this is what basketball in Gentry looked like in 1915. This looks like it could be a high school team, but we don’t know. Can anyone provide information as to who these people are and the building behind them?
