Scranton Museum, Pascagoula – Mississippi Mondays June 21, 2021

I decided to look around Jackson County, Mississippi for this week’s Mississippi Mondays post.  Found Scranton Museum in Pascagoula: https://web.archive.org/web/20131207165839/http://cityofpascagoula.com/scranton-museum. Check before scheduling a visit and verify hours open. The museum was closed in 2018 due to safety issues. Would be nice to see it re-opened one day.  Some of the items were added to the Scranton Nature Center:  https://web.archive.org/web/20131207172023/http://cityofpascagoula.com/scranton-nature-center Scranton Nature Center permanently closed.
