The "Booten" Whitaker cabin came from Birch Branch of Burning Fork here in
Magoffin County. The cabin is a story and a half and was built before 1860
of poplar logs. The period furniture was donated by Todd Preston and
family, and depicts heirlooms of the Preston and Prater families. Some of
the items are grandmother Ida (Walker) Preston's sewing machine, father Curt
Preston's rocking chair, mother Mollie (Helton) Preston's chest of drawers with
mirror, wife Phyllis (Prater) Preston's Magoffin County Flag, among various
other articles.
