Spent Weds. 9-16 at the Mennonite Library and Archives in No. Newton. Went over the Bergthal church books yet again, taking some photos. Also got a few obits from the MWR. Still plenty I need to do there.Stopped at Kaufman Museum as well. Talked to Rachel Pannebecker and she told me that the Schmidt trunk was not on display but she would get it out and let me know. Then when i got home, I had a letter from her with a photo (the one from the Mennonite Furniture book) and she told me that after i left she remembered that the trunk is on display in the attic of the cabin. so i need to go there and look at that as well.In Greensburg, Rebekah and I walked around the cemetery and I took 81 photos. Did miss getting one - Marion Dirks.Also got 3 for Find A Grave and put them on the web today.Sunday was the Schmidt reunion and I spent the time scanning and copying photos. It was great to get some new photos I had never seen. I really wanted to get some people to fill out Family Group Sheets as well, but there just wasn't enough time.
