Now, over at the New Albany Public Library site I found quite a few more!
Thank you so much for the link Sue, I had not found that one yet.
Its like Christmas in September!!!
How do I go about getting copies of all these (short of going there myself
which is
a bit of a trip)?
I did see the "ask a librarian" link but it is not all clear to me yet.
Guess I should contact the library.
A few months ago I identified the house on Elm St. in New Albany which the
Perkins/Walker family had passed around its members for better than 30
years. I looked in the real estate listings and found an agent who had a
house listed a few doors down. I, on a whim, emailed him and told him the
story of the house. Turns out another agent in New Albany now owns it. He
did go out and take a few pictures of the property and email them to me
within 2 days.
The world is not void of nice people yet. <;-P
Thanks all, Nina
