Don--Did your father and uncle think the relocation scheme was a good idea?

MTed--I can't rely on old newspapers. All the local papers were absorbed and the reference copy/book things were ruined by water. I don't think we have any Raging Enthusiasts..but setting someone to finding out how the trains hooked up and see how we fit along various trips from NY ought to be an easy task to delegate to a Mild Interest person. Maybe they'll like the topic and take it.

My early information was that children were picked up in NY and Boston. While browsing around (it still seems strange that I can't find maps/routes for any of the organizations that were transplanting children..) I saw mention of a boy who was picked up in KC.

I am in North Missouri. My county had three tracks..no depot museums and as far as I know, no good collection of papers from the time.

WYS--Courthouse! Good idea!

Thanks,
M
