With great sadness and heavy hearts, we say goodbye to our dear friend Maurine McMillian. Maurine was so instrumental with the creation of the Belen Harvey House Museum. She was also a supporter of the Southwest Model Railroad Museum. Maurine was 98 years old. She will be missed by so many. We are currently working on an exhibit in Maurine's memory. Please click Maurine's photograph for more information. Donations in Maurine's memory are appreciated.

When the Little Girl With Camera exhibit first opened at the Belen Harvey House Museum, Pearl's granddaughter, Gayle Hines Naile, donated Pearl's camera to the Museum.
This is the original camera.
