I have a correction in connection with the Helmsburg High School photo
taken in 1943. The teacher is Ruth Percifield rather than her sister,
Ruth. I was sure of that when I saw the picture, and asked Ruth and May
about it. They verified my identification.

Hi,
My cousin was searching at Monroe Co. Library and found a book on
Brown
County. It has several pictures in it of Brown Co. Residents. Like :
Several Brown County Women dressed as characters from the Abe Martin
comic
and stories, then gathered for this picture. The event was in the
late
1930's at the Abe Martin Lodge in the Brown County State Park. In the
picture are :Marietta Moser, Charlotte Mathis,Lina Taggart, Sara
Moore,
Stella Schrougham, Letha Walker and Mary Spicer. also Juanita Moser,
MUsette
Stoddard, Olive Snyder, Fern Seitz, Matha Weddle, Clara Miller, Anna
Bradley,

I hope this helps someone. I have a couple more. If this is helpful
I'll
type up names later on other class pictures. There was a picture I'd
never
seen of my grandmother Sarah Harden. She was holding my uncle. He was
infant. Her mother was in picture also and her grandson.
