Small-school yearbooks wanted

Webb City Area Genealogical Society

We are thankful to have several Alba yearbooks donated to the Webb City Area Genealogical Society by Susie Redden Smith and Janet Munson.

The yearbooks from the small area towns are hard to come by, and the society greatly appreciates all donations.

A good number of the visitors to the genealogy room come in to read the yearbooks.
