Medicine Lodge, Kansas - Carrie Nation Museum

Here is a photo of your sweetheart, Carry Nation [also spelled "Carrie"], that I took at the little roadside museum in Medicine Lodge, KS. They have an old stockade museum on the south side of US 160. This is not far from the Big Well at Greensburg, Old Ft. Dodge, south west of Dodge City, Mullenville, and of course, Pawnee Rock.

Carry was quite the character. The museum has claimed the home in which it resides as her childhood home. Her bar-destroying hatchet and other artifacts can also be viewed. [Glen Soldan, 02/03/1999]
