Guest guest Posted May 23, 2007 Report Share Posted May 23, 2007 Well, must leave ya'll for a couple of weeks. Going to Virginia to visit my SIL and nieces and have a memorial service for my Brother. He passed in Dec., but my SIL didn't want us to come until spring as she wanted to have a small service for him at Crater Lake. So, that's what we will do! Also, finish up some work he had started around the house (my DH will do that) and go through my brother's things to see who should keep what. We have a diary in the family that belonged to a great uncle. There were several in the family, but ours deals with the one where he just got home from the War (Civil War), and his planting and other stuff regarding his farm. I do know that he dropped his Barlow Knife down the well and it cost an amazing .50 to replace it...a whole weeks' wages. Anyway, decisions on belongings such as this is what I'm talking about. My brother wanted it, (the diary) to go to the Arkansas Historical Society or State Museum, but will have to find out about how or where these are, and whom to contact. On the way back, will stop off for the 127th consecutive family reunion on my dad's side of the family. This will be in Arkansas. Ya'll have a good time while I'm gone. Know SIL doesn't have a puter any more, so unless I go to the library, probably won't get online til I get back. Later, Anita Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
