The Eagle Historical Society is powered by dedicated volunteers who tirelessly tag, sort, scan, and classify artifacts for future generations. Your generous contributions of money, artifacts, or time help us to preserve the rich history of Eagle and those who came before us for generations to come. YOU help make our Society and Museum a cherished “gem” in the community and a valuable resource for those doing research.
Our greatest need is more SPACE. To properly store and showcase the precious artifacts entrusted to us, we need additional storage and display areas. Your financial support will enable us to expand our facilities and keep our equipment up to date.
As a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, all donations are tax-deductible.

I am downsizing stuff from my attic. I have a packet of old picture postcards, most of them seasonal or commercial, all addressed to a member of the Von Rueden family in Eagle, but a few are of people at their houses, probably photos of members of the Von Rueden family. Dates are apparently from around 1907 to 1914.
Please contact me if you would be interested in seeing these. If there are any members of the Von Rueden family still living in the Eagle area, perhaps they would like to have these items.
I don’t recall how I acquired this trove of postcards — perhaps in an antique shop or at a rummage sale many years ago.
