interest in preserving Manning's history; it's schools,churchs, students,
veterans, events and entire community. I have been visiting your site since the
wonderful coverage of my father, Wade "Bud" Mohr's WWII service. Thank you
Dave for preserving all this great information on Manning, a place I'll always
call "home"......

Comments: Mystery Family. Working on the Ewoldt
family, my great grandfather was Hans Ewoldt1844-1900 from Schleswig Holstein,
wife Mary Frick 1849-1945. Hans had a brother Henry 1841-1942, wife Dorthea
Vinke 1851. Sister Julia Ewoldt Kruse 1859, husband Joseph Kruse 1849. Many of
the children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren are unaware Hans, Henry and
Julia were siblings. Together they had 31 children some with the same frist
names. I am trying to put them all on the same tree. It all started with Claus
Ewoldt in Germany. Please contact me if you have information on Henry or Julia,
or would like the information I have so far.

Comments: My mother was Bernice Koon who worked
as a waitress for Bonita Hagedorn (owner) of the Virginia Café for a good many
years. At one time I saw a picture of my mom with several other employees of
the Virginia café and taken in the restaurant. I would love someone to find
that picture and send me a copy. I would gladly pay for a search fee. I don't
know if it was in one of the history books or where I saw it but it showed how
beautiful my mom was and an excellent waitress either late 40's or early 50's.
My brothers were Tom and Gary Koon. I graduated I 1955. Sicerely Shannon

research on the 1913 tornado. Of course, I wound up reading a lot more than
just that page. Thanks, Dave, for a terrific site.

Comments: Hey Dave, Those were great pictures
of harvesting corn. We still did it all by hand when I left the farm in early
1949, but we did have a neighbor that got a two row mounted picker on his "M"
Farmall in 1948. It really made us jealous. Greg

Comments: Dave, it was fun seeing all the old
harvesting pictures. I remember combining the oats with a thresher and dad
picking corn with his two row corn picker. It brings back fond memories, (not
that I want to relive them).

the corn picking photographs as I remember the hand picking before combines. I
even did a blog about our horse and picking corn. It is so different
now.
