Hello, my name is Bart Hamlett and I was born and raised in Edgewood, Iowa. I have been collecting anf gathering photos, postcards, memorabilia, stories and anything and everything Edgewood, Iowa related for 40 years. We now have a group of people organized and we have got the ball rolling on a museum in Edgewood. We have a building and hope to have it refurbished and open soon. We are looking for any old photos, postcards, store promos, pens/pencils, ashtrays, newspapers, lighters, dishes, and/or just about anything that was from or about Edgewood or Yankee Settlement ( as it was known before it was called Edgewood ) 1850's thru 2000's. Most stores gave away items, calendars, hot pads, pens/pencils, yard sticks, fly swatters, tape measures, lighters? Also, any photos, family pics, gatherings, pics that show a house or business maybe even in the background, school, parades, accidents, fires? We would love to get a copy and we will pay for the copies as well. You may think it is not worth passing on, but drop me a note and I will let you know. I am sure there are some old scrapbooks out there, boxes with pictures, postcards, check out those junk drawers, attics, basements, old trunks? There are several people that can help if you have something, contact me and I will help as well. call or text 319-310-7615, email me bartgrandpa@mchsi.com or even facebook me Bart Hamlett or we even have a facebook page called Edgewood, Iowa History and More. Please keep us in mind for all things Edgewood.
