It is funny, many of the old yearbooks from Gallia Academy into the late 1950's had nicknames and saying by the names. I love to look at the ones from my parent's era (1950's) but it was just recently I looked at those really old ones. The society also has yearbooks from the Gallia County Schools and Rio Grande College. I'm not sure what years are there but we have a great collection of them.

I thought I would share this information with everyone. Most of these people have nicknames and all have little saying after their names to tell about them, some are very amusing. > > > > That's a GREAT list. "Shirt" Womeldorff. Love it.
