To Tri-Rivers at 8:00 – sold Day Before Yesterday Hardbound to $15 to class & had to go home for more – sold 19 books. Class wrote testimonials for class & Randy.
To HH by 12:30 – at 1:00 Margie McQuire from Dayton walked in with family story that she was descended from Elizabeth who married A. Priest – she copied the Baker genealogy book (She had found Sharon Moore’s Marion page on internet & it said we had a copy)
I wrote introduction to award nomination for Randy & his class between visitors. Another one was Charles Custer (the bulk mail guy at PO who is so nice) He’s co-lateral descendant of Gen. Custer & a rank beginner in research – I told him to start with census & document sources.
Vance was in wanting to buy a copy of ‘Home in Indiana’ for his mother who was an extra in the film in the ’50s.
Met Mary at Tim Horton for supper. Helen Kaufman picked up my Mar. Co. Fair membership card for me so no hassle getting in next week.
