The museum is a source of historical data from the earliest days of the town's history. Michael Launay, VP of the Madison Township Historical Society, has authored a book with the assistance of former museum curator, Alvia Martin, "Old Bridge" and is currently working on "Old Bridge Founding Families" for the society. The museum contains a 1912 film, "The Juggernaut" filmed locally on a waxed spindel, various pottery jars, hand-turned wrought iron and the original one-room school house in which the museum is located. Another facet of the museum is the geneological data and photos as well as maps of antiquity.
