Since 1982, the Tuckerton Historical Society's Museum has been located in the Giffordtown Schoolhouse, an 1884 building with a stove, model of the Tuckerton Wireless (1912-1955), antique tools and many other artifacts that pertain to the school. The museum showcases artifacts from the early Quakers, Tuckerton, Little Egg Harbor, Tuckerton Railroad, and Tucker's Island. |
