Hi all, As co-coordinator for the Mahaska co GenWeb site, I received a great diary from Jessica Frost. It is not posted on the Biography page. Take a look and see what a young boy was thinking in 1866. It includes a few scanned pages also. It is wonderful when people share some of their family information that fits the county. Feel free to contribute anything, to either Peggy or me. Thanks to Jessica again, Celia Tomlin
