Trella Hemmerly – 1984-09-29

Saturday, September 29, 1984
Picked up Carl and Irma Campbell, Janet Berg and Norm Fogt at 95 and 23. In Columbus at Historical Center by 9:00. Business sessions poorly attended. Bill Nolan elected President, Steve White first vice president and THR (me) second Vice president; good crowd for Richard Haupt and awards program. Jim Strider told me Gary Ness (director of OHS) was impressed by my presentation. Mary took photos of each recipient and I thanked Mary Rockwell. Kenny got up and walked out!!
Moderated session on computers for historical society. Ray Shook and Allen County using for cataloging acquisitions. Forgot my purse. Home about 6:30. Doris Postell called about Union County genealogy.

Friday, September 28, 1984 Susanna’s first birthday.
What a day!
Sold the house at 418 Merchant to William Nichols through Granger Realty $36,500 which will net me about $32,500. Owe Home Federal about $10,000 on it. Had a $7,000 down payment on it in 1976 so I had tripled my investment in 8 years.

To the annual meeting of OHS and OAHSM at Ohio Historical Center. Signed the 26 award certificates for tomorrow.
Publication committee meeting on new “Local Historian”. Things moving ahead. Speedometer turned 99,999.9 as I drove to Marion to get Dave at bowling.
