By request, the bio of Sylvester Lounsbury has been posted. Also posted Mrs. Elizabeth Gehrett's biography.

Updated 1860 & 1910 census transcriptions

Created "Newspapers" section on "The Good Stuff" page and created Early 1900's Wells County News Items from Fort Wayne Newspapers page with links to previous posts on message board.

Added a wonderful photo of Old Red School from 1915. Children in the photo include Moore, Dolby, Outkelt, Burchard, Zehner, Pace, Jamison, Harrold, Malosh, Cozzart, Mason, and Miller. Does anyone know where the school was located?

Also added links to Pennsylvania Dutch Life and The Olden Times.

Updated oodles of links on "The Good Stuff" page.
