Ford Memorial Museum is a museum of local history and culture housed in the former Claiborne Hotel at 519 South Main Street in Homer in Claiborne Parish in North Louisiana. The Homer Chamber of Commerce is headquartered inside the two-story museum, which is located across the historic town square from the Claiborne Parish Courthouse. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the museum was the residence of Homer businessman Herbert Ford (1889-1960), a United States Army infantry captain during World War I. Ford and his wife, the former Ruth Meadows (1895-1996), lost a son at sea during World War II.〔Grave markers, Arlington Cemetery, Homer, Louisiana〕 ==Cotton and petroleum== The museum claims to hold the oldest compressed bale of cotton in existence in the United States. This cotton was baled about 1930.〔Cotton exhibit, Ford Museum〕 A similar bale is displayed at the Louisiana Cotton Museum in Lake Providence in East Carroll Parish in the farm-rich delta section west of the Mississippi River in northeastern Louisiana. "Black Gold", a replica of an oilfield roughneck, a general laborer who loads and unloads cargo from crane baskets and keeps the drilling equipment clean, is located next to the cotton exhibit. The roughneck was employed in the early 1930s by the Sinclair Oil and Gas Company. A recording explains how a farm family growing primarily cotton and corn faced economic travail in Mississippi but relocated to Claiborne Parish to benefit from opportunities in the oil and natural gas boom. "Oil changed our lives forever. We owe a lot to the men, mud, and mules that made it happen," concludes the recorded message. In 1921, oil was discovered in Homer; another strike followed that same year in Haynesville in northern Claiborne Parish near the Arkansas state line. The boom continued through the 1930s and brought many guests to the Hotel Claiborne, which opened in 1890.〔"Black Gold" exhibit, Herbert S.
