My visit to the Willams House Museum in DeKalb was in conjunction with a trip across US Highw82, beginning to end. This stop was a highlight! Local Judge Joni Haldeman left her workplace to open the museum, then took me to Dan Blocker's gravesite and the Ricky Nelson airplane crash site. I had a travel trailer attached so she even used her own vehicle! Great host and promoter of her town, thanks! Highly recommend this museum!
Would give this wonderful piece of history 10 stars if possible. The commissary is a work of historical art. Mike built and arranged the collection beautifully. A must see show place of Texas history when you're near Dekalb.
Very much enjoyed my visit to The Williams House Museum. It was first visit to De Kalb with the intention of only visiting Dan Blocker’s grave site and Ricky Nelson crash site. My visit to the Williams House added a whole be dimension. Learning that such a small town provided three military Generals was a surprise. I will certainly visit again. The lady who showed me around wax mist gracious. Sadly I have forgotten her name. I was the Australian.
Stop in and walk into the past. The house is and barn are full of local history. Including the plane crash that killed Ricky Nelson and his band. Dan Blocker AKA Hoss from Bananza who was from DE Kalb. The curators know the details of each piece of history in the house.
