Chuck Seyfert Scrapbook
Chuck Seyfert has an old scrapbook from his great great grandmother that has obits, wedding announcements and other odds and ends from back in the day, as he calls it. It’s all local stuff, meaning Delmar, Elwood, Lost Nation and Maquoketa. It spans the years roughly 1885-1935. There’s hundreds of entries, so if anyone is looking for an obit or wedding announcement from that era, he’ll be happy to see if he has it. Please email Chuck at Chuck.seyfert@yahoo.com Give him the page number and the name from the scrapbook that you are interested in.
Here is the index for the scrapbook.
