| The Seaford Museum, operated by the Seaford Historical Society, is dedicated to preserving and commemorating the history of the town of Seaford, Delaware located on the banks of the Nanticoke River. The museum, located in the former United States Post office, built in 1935, houses over 60 exhibits on the waterside town’s rich history and culture. Exhibits portray Nanticoke Indian life, early agriculture, shipbuilding, the canning industry and much more. Special rotating exhibits are opened on a regular basis. The Historical Society also operates the Governor Ross Mansion and Plantation, the home of the former Governor of Delaware (1851-1855) that has been restored to pre-Civil War elegance. |
