The middle artifact is a candle mold used by Martha Evans Winn (born 1842). In front is a display of home made candles. These types of candles were used to light the Schoolhouse and early Pioneer Homes. This High Top Shoe is typical of those worn by Alpine Pioneer Women. The item on the left is a baby shoe.

Artifacts from times past help people to connect with the past and spark an interest in the pioneers. We welcome individuals as well as groups to come and view the Alpine Relic Hall and discover the past.
