I noticed this on e-bay. Hopefully someone from the family will see
this. They are not looking to make a profit on it. They just want to be
able to get it back to family members.

Williams family baby books, 1940s / 1950s

From the estate of Fred H. Williams of Oliver, Wisconsin, we have acquired
four baby books, besides other family papers and photos. Mr. Williams was
an engineer who worked for Bechtel and associated companies in Wisconsin,
Oregon (Corvallis), and the Washington, DC area (especially Gaithersburg,
MD). His wife was Daisy Mildred Suihkonen. Fred died near Washington, DC
in 1994.
Information in the baby books says that Frederick Henry Williams was
born on
28 SEP 1921 in Oliver, WI to Henry Thomas Williams (of Chicago) and
Elizabeth Cragin. Daisy Suihkonen was born in 19 MAR 1921 in Superior, WI
and was the daughter of Oscar Suihkonen and Katri "Katie" Hammer, who
immigrated from Finland. This auction includes a painted portrait
(cracked)
of "Grandmother Suihkonen".

The four baby books are in varying states of repair, though mostly in good
condition. They are for:

Frederick "Fritz" Henry Williams, Jr. born 24 SEP 1942 at St. Francis
Hospital, presumably in Wisconsin.
John Thomas Williams born 04 MAY 1944 at St. Joseph's Hospital in Superior,
WI.
James Eugene Williams born 16 MAR 1949 in Corvallis, OR.
Nancy Kay Williams born 16 FEB 1950 in Corvallis, OR.
