Edith Regina CARLSON Dec 1, 1923; d Feb 25, 1962, buried in Trinity Lutheran Cem, Pierce Co. My grandfather, Alfred (“Fred”) Stolp and his brother, Frank, played baseball on the Orting baseball team during 1921. Fred pitched for the team. I’ve gone through the Library’s microfiche copies of the Orting Oracle and found copies of articles covering some of the games. We’d love to find someone with a team picture! or any further information about the team. Frank Stolp was a member of the Modern Woodmen, and also served in an elected position, according to an article in the Jan 6, 1923 Orting Oracle. Does anyone know anything about the organization “Modern Woodmen.” Again, looking for any records and pictures that may be available. Both Frank and Anton died in logging accidents. The family also picked hops in the Orting valley. Loralei Tacoma, WA jiveskeeler@juno.com
