Resources

Begin your research at the Etta Egeland Resource Center. Named in honor of one of our founders, Etta Lightheart Egeland, who was still conducting tours into her 100s, before she passed in 2002 at the age of 105.

The Resource Center houses Museum offices, archival storage and research center, including a growing archive of over 9,000 photos, oral histories, newspapers and many other artifacts documenting the island’s history.
