With that cemetery on the edge of Rock County, you might be able to get photos from him. He lives in Rock County but it does cost him money just for gas to drive up there. And snow should be gone from all granite markers by memorial day. Depends on Minnesota weather. Or maybe the local historical society can do the same thing.

Blanche's father, William Ross, was a close friend of my great great grandfather, George Lester Cole. The two of them homesteaded in Alberta, Canada about 1899. I understand that Blanche had a sister, given name unknown, who married a man named Leonard Dodge and that the Ross's, in their later years, lived with the Dodge's.

John Donaldson was known in the early Twentieth Century as the "Greatest Colored Pitcher In The World." We have been tracking his playing career for several years and more information is available at: www.johndonaldson.bravehost.com We are looking for a specific instance when Donaldson played in Rock county. We have a reference that mentions Donaldson playing in Luverne, Minnesota. On August 16, 1916, Donaldson was a member of the barnstorming All Nations team which stopped in Luverne for a ball game. We need someone to check the local newspapers or alternate local sources for accounts of this game, if sources exists. Donaldson traveled throughout the Upper Midwest during his near 40 year playing career. Some say he would have been the best pitcher in the Major Leagues in his prime of 1910 to 1917. Any help you could give would be greatly appreciated. If you are interested in the Donaldson effort, we can send you some background on Donaldson's many exploits in other parts of Minnesota and the Midwest.
