Bonnie,
In 1930 Uncle Ed and Aunt Cora Lowe were the Managers at the County Poor Farm! Sylvia and the rest of the household were employed by the County. Also, in that census they were living in Harrison Twp. The farm was on East Maple Ave. where the North Vigo High School and an Industrial area are now.

Mary,
I located an Aunt (sister to Tina's mother). She gave me Tina's phone number; unfortunately, Tina has moved out. Tina's little brother was disappointed to learn this when he tried to reach her this past weekend. Should you see Tina please let her know I am trying to make arrangements to take Dustin out to Terre Haute for a visit with his family.

Ms. Bissell-Cole,
It's a small world! My sister in law was telling me today, that one of our nephews is dating Tina Hines! I have copied your letter and we will pass it along to her. I don't think there are any pictures, but if they know of any one who has information about her, surely they will get back to you.
