The Hathaway Ranch Museum is a
registered 501(c)3 non-profit
corporation
dedicated to preserving and presenting
the eras of farming, ranching
and oil development in early Fulton
Wells/Santa Fe Springs.The museum's
five-acre site holds some one-hundred
and forty years of Hathaway family and
community history. Come visit us and
take a tour of our five acres of rusty,
dusty history, and hear stories about
the ranch and early Santa Fe Springs.
Our landmark focal point is the large
two-story 1933 Spanish-Mediterranean
style ranch house, along with a
flat-belt line-shaft driven machine
shop, and myriad historic farm and
ranching structures, oil drilling
equipment, and much more.
