Reply to "Unusual Collection"

A lot of you know I knit and crochet. I rarely buy yarn because every year or so somebody hands me a bag of Grandma’s crochet stuff. This year a friend who doesn’t craft gave me a small briefcase full of hooks, needles and accessories, most of which I have already put to use at least once. You know that old saying about trash and treasure...

About how I found Louis Hahn: Family Search is a free service of the Mormon church. The search engine is a little odd, so it helps to poke at it a few different ways if you don’t find what you need right away. Even if you subscribe to Ancestry, if you use Family Search first you’ll have better terms to narrow down the choices.

I also subscribe to newspapers.com and will gladly look up people and events. They don’t have all of the newspapers in the country, and some they charge extra for, but a lot of articles will be passed around by wire service. They also have a free one-week trial if you know what you’re looking for (but be warned that it gets addictive when you start digging into old Christmas ads or railroad news.)
