Historical Trivia in Peru


The Miami County Museum has a broom-making machine dating back to 1778. Joseph Grogg, Perry Twp. brought the item from Connecticut in a covered wagon. The Grogg family maintained the machine over one hundred years before donating it to the Museum. There are many treasures to observe at the Miami County Museum located on Broadway and Fifth Street. They have a staff that will answer questions or get you an answer. It's a great place to take kids!
