Hi Judy, Off the top of my head, I would have no idea what school your father attended. The record books are dated. You first look for the book that fits the time period your father would have been in school. The books are then alphabetized by surnames that begin with the letter "A" & so on. Secondly, you look for his surname. You do not need to know the name of the school in advance. Nothing is indexed by the school's name. Happy hunting, Helen (DCGS) In a message dated 11/19/2 9:15:49 AM, [email protected] writes: << Hi Helen, Just saw your post to the list about Chester School Books! Wonderful! My father was b: Oct 1896. In the 1900 census he was living at 431 E 12th St - Chester, PA in the household of Frank Nathan EYRE. Would you have any idea what school H(arry or Henry) Weston EYRE would have attended? It may be that blessed ole Pete Mooney would do a look up for me in the Chester school books the next time he is at DelCoHisSoc and I'd like to narrow the search a bit for him before I ask him if possible.
