Susan, you might want to check with the Mint Hill Historical Society’s Country Doctor Museum. It’s outside of Charlotte, NC, and they have worked with a number of old buildings on that site. Their web address is http://www.minthillhistory.com/. Suzanne McDonald is their Director.

Has anyone on the list been involved in a project where a small historical society has been given an older building to rehabilitate and renovate as a museum?  I would appreciated any advice and answers on or off list.
