For the past week, Ashley has had me rearrange and decide what frames to use on a wall exhibit in the museum, a process requiring acute and accurate measurements. I have also spent significant time continuing to accession a gift of World War One related items and have made great progress on the gift as a whole, accessioning almost the entire box.
With the progress I have made with the gift, I have also learned a great deal about two prominent families from the area: The Saunders and Flanders family. The gift contained a family tree as well as a detailed history of both families, mentioning their European origins as well as their migration to the United States. The gift contains multitudes of items related to the two families, including bank statements, checks, photographs of family members, as well as wedding invitations and other documents.
