Oxford contains images of industrial and agricultural life, including traditional farms and the nation's longest-running continuously operating mill. Historic images of Oxford's veterans, from the Civil War through Operation Iraqi Freedom, are also included, as are nostalgic photographs of Oxford students, teachers, and schoolhouses.
