I have a lot of Dora's things, including her friendship book circa 1880 with signatures and notes from many classmates and friends; some of her letters and her scrapbook and lots of pictures from the Woodward and Perry areas from earliest photographic records on -- many of these aren't labeled, of course! If your family was in Woodward/Xenia around the 1900s, let's compare notes, and if you have any interest in any of the names listed, please get in touch!
