The museum was named affor
a Loyalist widow from Charleston, South Carolina,
Wyannie Malone,
who arrived on the cay in 1785 with her 4 children
and became the founding "mother" of the settlement.

The rooms have been re-created,
furnished with period pieces

Pieces of jewellery of the old times
.
Loads of buttoms

Charming small museum
- worth to pay a visit while in Hope Town
