Work is continuing on the Wireman log home in our Pioneer Village.  We have finally gotten it under roof, thanks to Randall Risner, Hager Jack Sizemore and Henry Clay Sizemore.  Through the process we also had the help of Toddie Preston, the carpentry shop students and teacher at the Magoffin County Vocational School, as well as James Wallen and Bob Kugel.

We send our high regard to Albert Wireman who donated the cabin to the Pioneer Village and helped take down and load the logs so they could be transported to their present location. We also want to extend our great appreciation to our good friend A.B. Conley for donating the wood for the flooring.  Last, but certainly not least, many thanks to Willie and Nellie Montgomery for spending a day working very hard to help with this reconstruction.  We're very grateful to all who take time from their busy schedule to help out!

As you can tell, we're working hard to get this cabin ready for our 2009 Magoffin County Founders Days (honoring THE MANNS CLAN)!
