1946

The school records at CCHS for Coin and Douglas only go to 1946. Coin 1946 is the only year Patsy and Richard appear on the records.

1935, 1936, 1937

When was Aunt Fleta Born?

I don't think anyone now knows. The CCHS has school records from Carroll Co. Schools in the 1930s & 40s. I am transcribing some of these records for their Quarterly. The records I have for Grandpa Powell's family are 1932 through 1937 Sunny Lane school signed by Grandpa Powell. I can recognize his hand writting from other examples I have seen. In 1932 he said Fleta was born in 1916, in 1933 the same, in 1934 he wrote 1917 and wrote a 6 over the 7, in 1935 he said 1916, 1936 says 1917, and 1937, the last year Fleta appears on the records, he says 1916.

My lucky day

Just checked my email and had 4 very important messages and one from the local historical society. The society one was really a spam message forwarded to me by the society avertising a scam about increasing web traffic to the website I maintain for the society. But the others were much more promising, and just at the right time of year.

Point Bank is informing me about Error # 48. This is really good becasue I did not know I had and account at Point Bank, but now that I know, I will see if I can extract some cash for the account. Someone from aol is wanting to inform me about cruelty to chickens. I don't know why they think I would be cruel to chickens. Sometimes I eat chicken, but not until after they are completely deceased. So, someone other than me is doing the cruel part of putting them to death. Then, I have an urgent message from a Bank in London concerning my account there. Another one I did not know about. But, most promising of all, I have one with a subject saying "Your Email have won 3 million UDS". That could not come at a better time, but, if they have 3 million USD to give away, looks like they might need to expend a small sum on grammar lessons. Got to go now. I need to spend some of this new wealth.

Doing fine

George did great through his surgery this time. His eye is already some better. Everything went fine. We left Little Rock abut 2pm and got home at 5:30. I drove home all the way and he did not yell at me once. He does not have to go back to work til Dec 26 and does not have to go back to LR for his check up. He will go to Fayetteville some day next week. In about 6 to 8 weeks he will get new glasses. I am so glad he has this done now.
