I've "rescued" an old Autograph Album which originally belonged to Alice E.
WEINSTEIN of Terre Haute, Indiana. The album contains entries from both
family and friends. Based on limited research I was able to gather
information regarding the family and have included that information along
with the details regarding specific entries in the album below:
June 31, 1882
