Again about the diaries I have from my Grandfather. In the back of the 1908 diary he drew a map of what Mt. Etna looked like in 1908 and he then listed all of the residents. If you had or think you had a relative living in Mt. Etna at that time, please e-mail me with the name and I will see if it is on the list I have. Pat

I have 2 diaries of my grandfather who lived in Mt. Etna, Huntington Co., Ind. He died in an accident at the Butler Piano Stool Factory at the age of 27. The 2 diaries are from 1908 & up to 11/15/1909, and he died on 11/18/1909. In the 1908 diary he listed an account of High School Commencement, Class of 1902, Mt. Etna In. List of Graduates: Grace M. Brown Lawrence L. Pinkerton (my grandfather) George R. Pastener William H. Giltner Morton Shilts - Teacher. He also listed the graduating class of 1904 of Mt. Etna High School. Graduation was on Saturday April 16, 1904, held in the Mt. Etna Opera House List of Graduates: Vivian Hildebrand - Salulatorian Hazel Hawkins Nellie Brown Guy Billiter - Validictiorian Hugh Jeffrey Invocation and Benediction - J.Z. Barrett Class Address - A. H. Kierkoff. Presentation of Diplomas: M.M. Clapp Presentation of Bibles: Mrs. Mae Hawk He then described what each graduate wore. Hope the above info might help someone. Pat

Do you ever see the message boards at Genforum? there are a couple of people there (at the Huntington county site) who have the surname Hoover in their family, they could maybe be of help too. Ellen

My sister and I just got finished with a whirlwind tour of Indiana counties working on ancestors. Really did enjoy our visit to the Indiana room at the public library. Lots of work space and wonderful sources. Also visited the courthouse where we had access to all the original wills. Did not make many copies cause just hard to handle the large books on the copy machine and at $1 a page, couldn't afford too many mistakes. Did however do lots of writing. Bring some male company with you unless you are comfortable with climbing a roller latter to get the BIG books down that are stacked about 10 feet high. We stayed in a Comfort Inn that was not far out of town and there was a Bob Evans restaurant in the parking lot so very convenient. The Indiana room has obituaries indexed - not just the name but the actual obit and copies there are only 20 cents. This was great. I also enjoyed all the city directories. If I had had more time, I would have enjoyed the old high school year books but got done, what I could. Not all the counties were as genealogy friendly as Huntington but this one was wonderful. Take care Marilyn
