Bruce, has come back to Baltzer Meyer from Baltimore to donate more items from his family.

The framed picture is of his grandfather Albert Long. That’s just one of the many items that he donated today.

We are so glad to have all the wonderful these donations. We are able to preserve his family’s story for future generations.

Our goal is to save, display and share history.

Thank you!
Bruce.

Built in 1885, this building began as a place of faith and a strong part of the community.
In 1995, it became the home of our shared history — a place where the stories of Westmoreland County families are preserved.
And today, it still stands as a part of our community’s daily life.

But to keep it alive for the next generation, we need your help.
Your support will ensure that the families who built this county — the workers, the parents, the volunteers — are never forgotten.
