It's too bad that this was not transcribed so that we can see what was written while viewing it online. Comment left on 08 May 2011 at 21:17 by Debra
Historylinks is a small museum that relies on volunteer effort. They have done a tremendous job getting all these photos online. Transcribing handwritten documents would be another enormous project. Could there be a way of harnessing the potential of the online audience to help with this? Comment left on 11 May 2011 at 19:59 by Estelle Quick
