I have letters written in 1918-1921 that give a fantastic view of life in St. Louis at that time period. They go into the effects of the Spanish Infl., housing costs, dresses, politics, social events, movies being shown, troop returns, etc. I have basically finished indexing 600 pages of letters written between Sept. 1918 through Dec. 1921. There are about 1000 names, most relating to people living in or near St. Louis. They were written by my two great aunts: Celeste O'Donnell (St. Louis) & Rosalie O'Donnell (stationed overseas with the Red Cross) and my Grandmother, Anna Mae (O'Donnell) Malin (Chicago). They give a lot of information, not only about St. Louis and the World, but marriages, deaths, births of friends and family. I'm not sure if the list would be interested in seeing the index - if so it is on the Lotus program and doesn't want to let me cut and paste - so if anyone has any ideas? It is about 33 pages of names and page numbers. I'm also hoping to scan the letters and put them on a cd to protect them - one of these days. All most all of the letters are typewritten as Celeste worked for Liggett & Meyer; Rosalie was a clerk in the Red Cross and my Grandfather, to the vast relief of the family, purchased my Grandmother a typewriter shortly after Rosalie left for overseas in 1918.
