Dear Linda, I was delighted to hear you have bottles from Underinner's drugstore. The Underinners are cousins of mine and I was contacted by the local Effingham librarian asking if I had any pictures of the drugstore, ;pictures of early family in Effingham, or other memorabilia for the library. I have to go back in my e mail to get the name of the nice lady who contacted me. I'll send this info later unless you know already who she is... Suzanne Reedy Russell- grandaughter of Eda Merz who was a daughter of the Merz family who had a cigar factory in Effingham in the late l800's. A sister of Eda married an Underinner. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Linda Lambert" <ktlkate@extremezone.com> To: <ILEFFING-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, June 06, 2005 11:25 AM Subject: RE: [ILEFFING-L] Ebay searches with keywords: > Yep, I have two separate searches.
