Many people are interested in knowing the history of their home. We see these people regularly at the Monroe County History Center. This may be a topic that you may encounter as well. That's why I would like to extend to you a special invitation to attend an upcoming program at the Monroe County History Center on Thursday, July 12, at 7 PM. Bill Coulter will present a program titled, "Finding Your Place in History: Old House Research." Coulter is a local, independent architectural history researcher. He will discuss how to research the history of a building using materials available at the Monroe County History Center and elsewhere with a special emphasis on using property tax data and other records to answer questions such as: when was the house built; what did it look like originally; who built it; who designed it; who lived there; who owned it. Coulter has presented this material previously for the City of Bloomington, Department of Housing and neighborhood Development, and his research will be part of the upcoming City of Bloomington Interim Report, Indiana Historic Sites and Structures Inventory. This program is free, and no registration is required. We hope you can join us. Randi Richardson

Hello Randi I'm a recent new comer to the Indiana rootsweb listing and have found many of the articles and information quite intriguing. Also, I've been looking for a relative who died in France during WWI. I didn't even know he existed until I recently found my g-grandfather's obit where it mentions his son Leroy Rudolph who gave the ultimate sacrifice for his country in France. I've searched some of the major sites but nothing turns up. Is there a special listing for the Gold Star Honor Roll? Is this just for Indiana or all states. Sorry, I'm still trying to learn more about how to search for war related items. I've also looked on Fold 3 without luck. Appreciate any ideas. His father was Henry C. R. Rudolph, and mother either Josephine or Martha. Henry was married twice and I'm not sure which woman is his mother. They lived in Indiana and Ohio. Is there another list for Indian South-East.? Please forgive me if this is not in the realm of the protocol of the list...just let me know and I'll not ask questions.
