The F. Brooke Whiting House Museum, located in Cumberland, MD, showcases an extensive collection of art and historical artifacts amassed by Brooke Whiting, a distinguished librarian and curator from UCLA. Following his death in 1998, Whiting bequeathed his home and its contents to the Allegany County Historical Society, ensuring that his legacy would be preserved for future generations.

Whiting's strong ties to Allegany County are evident not only in his contributions to the Historical Society but also in his commitment to maintaining the area's rich heritage. His substantial endowment supports the museum's operations, allowing visitors to appreciate the historical significance of his collection and the story of his family's legacy.
