During the winter of 1958-1959, the Williams Grove Historical Steam Engine Association (WGHSEA) was formed with the purpose of preserving the role in history of steam-operated machinery and equipment through: encouragement of public appreciation of the equipment and of its historical significance; education of members and of the general public as to the importance of preservation of the equipment; education of members and the gernal public as to methods and techniques of preservation of the equipment; as well as to educate the public about the history of farming.

Our association uses steam engines for plowing, harvesting, and sawing and we have early gas engines and tractors as well as a PRR steam locomotive engine.
