James Phelps White Museum, Roswell, New Mexico

We continued our Roswell Museum adventures on a more historic nature today compared to the UFO fascination yesterday :).

We went to the home and now museum of James Phelps White who was a large cattle rancher in the New Mexico area. The home was built in 1912, and is on the National Register of Historic Places.

The museum was excellent and we would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting this area. It was filled with all kinds of antiques, artifacts, and information on the history of this area in the early 20th century. The main focus is the Roswell's citizens historical influence in WWI & WWII.
