Mary, at the South Bend museum I picked up an article about Bertha Allison. She came to Washington from Missouri by herself when she was 18 to teach school at Nemah and South Bend.

All: Cross-cultural information needed to get around America. I'm familiar with miles, and pounds, and feet, and the 60 minute hour, but I don't know anything about Fahrenheit temperatures (other than -40 and +451, of course). Can someone tell me how to do the conversion?

Thanks, Marion
