Entry from Journal #1: August 15, 1930~
Irene and John[n]ie sent Alb[ert] a birthday card this day. I got a letter from Aloyo Engleman (Gussie’s boy). W[illia]m Rumping left the 18 for Spokane again. They come to the lead in the Shokipee mine. Stropp took brother’s car again. Mr. and Mrs. Sam Bishop, Mrs. Mable Shea are visiting at Marysville. I got [E]yebrows (canary) from Sister Maud the 16th.
Entry from Journal #1: August 7, 1930I was to the baby parade. It was nice. Buddie Dalin was in it.
These are 2 photos that were in an album belonging to my grandmother, Georgiana Frances Schenk Dalin, that relate to the day of the baby parade. “Buddie” was my father. He was 3 years old in this photo.
The photo below is of “Buddie” and his sister, Shirley.
I’m just back from my annual summer trip to Montana and am happy to report that I located the pilot’s wheel for the steamboat Rose Bud in the Montana Historical Society Museum – which is where my earlier post stated it might be.
It’s a little difficult to tell from this picture, but the wheel is rather large – probably about 5′ tall. Below this photo is a photo of the museum label for this exhibit piece – see item #4 “Steering wheel”.
Note the “c. 1877” date, which seems to confirm my research that the steamboat was built in 1877.
