IMOGENE OAKLEY'S SCRAPBOOK
This web page presents a scrapbook created by Imogene Oakley. The scrapbook contains birth announcements, wedding announcements, obituaries, photographs, and various miscellaneous items that interested Imogene. Most items concern people she knew. Items pasted in cover two time periods — 1931-1935 and 1939-1941. Also, the items are not really in chronological order but seem to have been pasted in at a later date. The scrapbook now belongs to Brenda Kirk Fiddler.
