The Chariton Leader, Chariton, Iowa Thursday, June 14, 1906 On Monday afternoon the Lucas County History Society met in the office of County Supt. FITCH. The officers elected for the ensuring year are: COL. WARREN S. DUNGAN, President; THOS. GAY, Vice-President; MRS. F.H. BOYNTON, Secy. and Treasurer; MISS MARGARET W. BROWN, Curator. Directors: T.M. DUNSHEE, LOTT CURTIS, MRS. JESSIE THAYER, MISS LAURA FITCH, and ELIJAH LEWIS. MRS. BOYNTON is also the financial agent of the association and COL. DUNGAN the committee on printing. A larger membership is desired and certainly ought to be had, the annual dues being only 50 cents. A room in the Library building was set aside for the association, which it took in the rough and expended almost $100 in fitting it up, which leaves a debt -- the amount now being about $40. Besides the room has no tables, chairs or other furniture. The history of Lucas County is an important matter and interest should be aroused as tradition can not be relied on by the generations to follow. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Copied by Nancee(McMurtrey)Seifert October 19, 2004 [email protected]
