Monona County Courthouse

This is the 1902 senior picture for Onawa High School. The beautiful young lady in the back row on the far left is my grandmother, Ethel Charlotta Burrell. I do not know any of the other young people in the picture and I am hoping some one will recognize their ancestor and contact me. Contributed by: Coke Helmstetter
