FRANKLIN, Kan. — A new exhibit at a Southeast Kansas museum is showcasing the history of the mining industry.

The exhibit contains photos, maps, coins, and high school uniforms – giving people an in-depth look at the impact that miners had.
“I’m genuinely interested in what has happened here and how this all developed, what happened with the mining, why people come here, where they came from, what they did, when they came here, and how they lived and how they related to each other. It’s an amazing story and it’s our story,” said David R. Wallace, Presenter.
