| I have started to put the Glenview Cemetery records on a spreadsheet. It will take a long time because |
| while I'm doing it, I'm also cross referencing other places for information to make sure everything is as |
| accurate as it can be. |
|
| I found in the records that a 5 year old boy died in 1888 from "summer diarrhea". I have no idea if there's a |
| "winter diarrhea" or not !!!!!!!!!!. |
|
| I have e-mailed Marilyn Pierce regarding her request on family from Pulteney. I am compiling some |
| information to mail to her. Her ancestor, Seth Pierce, was one of the first settlers in the Town of Pulteney. He |
| arrived here around 1806. |
|
| I visited with Eleanor Frisk's daughter Helen a couple weeks ago. She said she had some old pictures of |
| the store that her mom owned and will send them to us because the store was so much of a part of the town |
| history. Buildings over the years are falling down or burning up so the pictures are wonderful to remember how |
| the town looked many years ago. I hope we receive more from people. |
|
| We also have received a picture of Clara Stone and Jerry Cole from Nancy Cole for the "Military Wall". |
| Because the "Wall" will now be full, I need to research who put up the cork so we can buy some more and |
| put it up to accommodate more pictures as we receive them. |

| Mrs David Pizura stopped by to get information on the house they're renovating. Unfortunately, I don't seem |
| to have any information on it. On the 1873 map, it appears that the Bonney's lived there. I couldn't find any file |
| for that family. I gave her what I could find through the census. If anyone has old pictures of houses in our town, |
| they would be greatly appreciated. |

| We received an old picture from the Waterloo Historical Society taken by F M Foster. He was a |
| photographer here in town. He lived where the O'Malia property is now. His father owned the stone winery on |
| Cross Street. I have read Frank Foster's diary, so it's nice to see one of his photographs. |
| Response: I sent them a thank you note. |
