Starting tomorrow, look for new material every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. Through Christmas, I’ll also be posting Christmas advertisements for family-owned businesses on Sundays.
Enjoy!

Taking a Break
I’m currently taking a break from posting for a while to focus on some other parts of my life, but hope to be back in December.
Short News Items
Once again, it’s time for a round-up of short news items that I’ve been gathering for the past few years. These are brief pieces of news, often no more than two sentences, that appeared in newspaper columns that focused on the town’s social life. I’ve grouped them chronologically, and they’ll appear on odd-numbered dates through July. Where possible, I’ve included links to other articles about the people cited, so I encourage you to explore those stores as well. Enjoy!
Seasons Greetings!

Found on eBay
I’ve been known to buy artifacts related to the extended Rorick family on eBay, but this item is a wee bit out of my usual price range. It’s a Waltham Eight-Day Car Clock watch that belonged to Captain William C. Tyrrell, of Beaumont, TX. I’m posting it here in the event that someone else may be interested.
Memorial Day
Happy Mother’s Day
Easter Greetings
Happy New Year!
