WHO SAW ME PORTRAY MOSES GRINTER, A FERRYMAN ON THE KANSAS RIVER
After our visit, I can tell you that the best part of our visit is Bill Nix (sic) of the historical society who is the historical interpreter representing Moses Grinter! He is fantastic at his job! Not once that we were in the house did he break character! He is very entertaining and knowledgeable of the Grinters! He alone is worth the trip to the Grinter Place Museum!
