WHAT's NEW?
NOTE: It amazes me the many
ways in which our genealogy information is used. I recently received an
email letting me know that the 1936 South High School senior high pictures on
our genweb site had been useful to this person. He hadn't been able to
find a photo of this young lady. It seems that she had been murdered in
1938 in Grand Rapids and the story had been in the
November issue of True Detective. Now her death is going to be
included in a film that is being done.
