Not exactly. The real issue, in my view, seems to be our relationship to the MPL, and our right to share the building. Of course, if we had sufficient funding to purchase and maintain our own building, that would be great, but it's not realistic at this time. As for the potential site (in the other building which the MPL now has), some of the things you asked about are currently being negotiated, so I really have nothing definite to report. As I said earlier, the original offer had many strings attached which would have limited our ability to run the CCHS as we chose. I do know that the MPL had threatened to take away our stacks, which would have left all of our material on the floor. Wouldn't that have made a nice picture for the newspapers!

Annette, I sent my letters today and my renewal for my membership. Just a thought. I belong to the Hacker's Creek Pioneer Descendants in West Virginia and they had a problem with the old building they were in. Through a grant they were able to get an old school house for there new building. Not sure what was all involved but if you went to email the director, Iam sure she would fill you in on what she had to do and may give you some information may help our problem. Her name is Joy Stalnaker and she can be reached at [email protected] I hope this may help with our problem. If nothing more then some other ideas that may fit our problem.

Has anybody thought of asking the local Bar Association or the newspapers to research the time funds where raised for the MPL, CCHS and MLAHA groups back in 1925 ?
