The Stuart home, Wales
Dr. James Stuart, an early pioneer in the Wales area, was responsible for much of the community's early growth and settlement. He opened the first store and hotel and donated a plot of land for the church. His home was donated to the museum in 2004 and has since been restored.Photo: © Jason Bray
