Wanda,

This is a wonderful thing you are doing. Do you have any articles for the
small town of Milltown ? I am especially interested in the years 1914 thru
1945. (I was born there; both sets of grandparents were the original members
of Our Lady of Lourdes Church, where my parents married and all my family
were baptised, etc.)

Loretta
