Hi Evelyn, It's been awhile since we have been in touch and I have been busy with other things and other family names but I was wondering if you would ask them at the Historical Society in Shelton (that is what you are talking about I hope?) if the notebooks on the different schools have been indexed? You sent me the article last spring I believe and I keep thinking that it is something I want to do in the near future. I am still trying to find out about my father in law , Blaine Edward McKanna, his brother, John M McKanna. Do you know if there is somekind of directories for Shelton for the late 1890's? Also if there are Shelton school records available for the 1890's. If you would just ask the questions and see what kind of answers there are and get back to me when you have time I would really appreciate it. How long have you lived in Shelton? Thought you lived in Olympia. Gail and I are taking a tour of the gov. mansion/lunch at Falls Terrace on Wed. She signed us up and this is my birthday present. Talk you later and if you are not able or have the time to check on what they have at the historical society that's ok.
