Historical information
This museum (the oldest in the Midwest region of WA) was established in the former Maley homestead at Greenough by the Geraldton Historical Society in 1966. It was initially named the Wonga Park Folk Museum - when the Ruddock family purchased the Maley property in 1932 they had renamed it Wonga Park.
In September 1970 the name of the museum was changed from Wonga Park Museum to the Greenough Pioneer Museum.
