Dear Sheila,
Have a wonderful time next Sat. Oh, how I wish I could be there! On a
historical/genealogical note, I have started working (again) on the
transcribed and annotated "Daily Dairy of Lemuel Wells" - all of 1862
and two months of 1864. I am determined to finish this, and self-
publish it before next June. The dairy entries themselves run to
about 30-35 pages. Next I will work on writing short biographical
sketches, or at least some identifying personal information about
each person mentioned in the diary. May have some questions for you
when I get to people I don't know. I know you are an expert on the area.
Have a good one!

For anyone who might be interested in a little publicized
Historical part
of
Southeastern Indiana. Next Saturday September 20th from 10:00 -
4:00 they
are
having "a gathering" at Eleutherian College which is Located in
Lancaster in
Northern Jefferson County-this area was known as a main stop on the
underground railroad and for being a community with heavy Anti-
Slavery
activities.
Some people will give talks on their ancestors who were among the
members
of
the Neil's Creek Anti-Slavery society. The Eleutherian College
was founded
in
1848 and will be open and displays set up for visitors to see. I
have been
asked to bring down some of my research on area families and on
doing
Family
Research on line. I am also taking some family heirlooms such as
my GGG
Grandfathers gun he carried when he was in the Indiana Legion and was
involved in
defending the area during Morgan's Raid. Lancaster is on IN 250
just off
Hwy 7
between North Vernon and Madison.
