Check the old newspapers - maybe calling the historical society or an Erie co. library would be best way to begin. perhaps someone already has put something online- do a search for it. most of the ones I came upon in a quick search, show the officials, no one in the crowd, such as at the illustration at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_McKinley_assassination Check Buffalo/area websites, such as: http://www.buffaloresearch.com/ http://www.buffalonian.com/hnews/1901ourpresidentshot.html Linda ----- Original Message ----- I know this is a shot in the dark, but would anybody know if there would be a photo of the shooting of former President McKinley? I remember my grandmother saying that she and her mother (possibly her grandmother too) were in the line waiting to shake hands with the former president when he was shot. She said the man that shot him was only two ahead of her. Therefore, I thought if she was that close to the former president at the time, her picture might be in some photos captured that day. Any thoughts? Bill Hinkle Port Orange Florida \
