They spent their time cataloging about 1,000 Mountville-related items that were donated by museum board member Robert Zink; his wife, Lois; and their daughter, Sonya. For the past 40 years, the Zink family found, purchased, and was given signs, badges, plot drawings, photographs, newspaper clippings, hats, flags, tools, trophies, furniture, machinery, ceramics, documents, books, Civil War artifacts, uniforms, and more.
