Hello Everyone,
I have several items to call to your attention.<g>
1) Message from Mary K. George:
The Clinton County Genealogical Society annual trip to the Allen Co. Library
in Fort Wayne, IN will be Saturday October 16, 1999. The cost is $12.00,
payable to the Society and is due when you sign up.
You may sign up at the Frankfort Community Public Library, 208 W. Clinton
Street, Frankfort, IN and must be signed up by October 9, 1999. The moneys
are refundable if you canceled prior to the Oct. 9th. If the Society
cancels for lack of participation, moneys will be refunded.
We will meet at the Library by 7:00 a.m. on October 16, 1999 to begin the
trip and will return by 7:00 p.m.
E-mail any questions to Mary K. George dpmk(a)netusa1.net
* I have lost count of the obituaries Mary has submitted <g>
2) Message from Karen Zack
Hi -- I'm the coordinator for Parke & Montgomery counties In GenWeb. I
received a beautiful photo album -- I think it belonged to Mary Jane
Olson who is in most of the pictures (think it must be her husband and
they only had one son -- lots of him, but don't see his name anywhere).
Anyway, I'd like to get this to someone who would appreciate it. There
is an article about her celebrating the Fin de Siecle Club's Golden
Anniversary (which disbanded in 1980) so it's a fairly current one --
the boy looks to have been born in the early 50's, perhaps, by the looks
of the pictures. Think you could put a query on the page for me or
would you have any idea how I could find the son or someone who would
want it? Hate to toss it -- a friend of mine bought some stuff at a sale
(don't know if it was theirs or just happened to be in some stuff there)
and gave it to me to see what I could do with it.
Please respond to Karen at zacho(a)wico.net
