Ford-Era Firetruck Returns to Richmond Hill
Visitors can see a very special vehicle on display a the Richmond Hill History Museum -- the 1937 Ford Fire Truck that we believe was supplied by Henry Ford and used in Ways Station/Richmond Hill during the Ford-era.
Recently, members of the Richmond Hill Historical Society were able to locate and acquire the truck from neighboring Midway, Georgia. A very special thank you to:
Russ Bryant, Photographer
Earl Futch
Peach Hubbard
Roy Hubbard
Christy Sherman
Art Thumwood
Dr. Clemontine Washington, Mayor of Midway, GA
Harold Fowler, Mayor of Richmond Hill, GA
Midway City Council
All Towing, Inc. provided transport to Museum free of charge.
The truck is still in a very solid condition but the Richmond Hill Historical Society would like to restore it to its original beauty. Your donations and sponsorship can help us meet our goal of $50,000 to restore and house the truck.
