Bonneauville was once home to one of the most famous cigar manufacturers in the country, chain, buggy, wagon, casket and furniture making businesses prospered in the town. Shoe makers, a tanner, a harness maker and a goodly population of skilled craftsmen, carpenters and masons, plasterers, seamstresses, mechanics, farmers and others shared space with general store owners, blacksmith shops and garages. New and used automobile dealers, banks, barbers, beauticians, and many others plied their trades in this small but productive part of Pennsylvania. A continually growing collection that has taken years to accumulate and catalog, the Bonneauville Museum houses hundreds of items related to the town, it’s people and it’s businesses.
