I am interested in a brief history of Paonia. I have a picture postcard addressed to my great grandmother, Miss Lillie May BEALS in Paonia. She was in MO in 1904 and married by Feb 1907. Very curious what she was doing in Paonia. Was the railroad going through Paonia during time period? At this point I don't know if her father, Charles E. Tanner worked for the railroad, but it seems like a plausible explanation. branches@widomaker.com http://www.widomaker.com/~branches/
