The Barn

The Barn

The Sulick Butcher Shop

In 2000 the Society constructed the Barn to house its extensive collection of large historical objects associated with the industry and leisure activities of the county. 

Highlights include:


• Early 1900’s Sulick Butcher Shop from Lopez , dismantled and reassembled piece by piece in the Barn, replicating a photo displayed on the wall taken in the early 1900's


• Corson motorized Ice Sled built in 1936 and used on Lake Mokoma, Eagles Mere Lake and Beaver Lake


• Harrington Creamery items


• Farming, lumbering, and mining implements


• Railroads exhibit featuring pictures of historic railroad stations in Sullivan County, including Wheelerville, Nordmont and Laporte


• Telephone switchboard

• Early 20th century store replica


• Working steam powered engine


• Dog-powered butter churn


• Maple sugaring display


• Carpentry, Masonry, and Cooper tools


• Plus many more “must see” items on display

The nearby shed is presently used for storage, but will one day also be added to the Museum complex.
