No one even came close on guessing the location of the Happy/Sad masks that were shown in an earlier blog. This sculptured set of masks are on the exterior wall next to the large red doors for the entrance to the auditorium at St. Benedict Elementary School facing South Harlan Street.
This blog was originally set-up for the Tri-State Genealogical Society. Under the new leadership, this blog and the original web site are no longer officially recognized by the society; however, it is continuing to be maintained by its creator, John G. West.

Tombstone Thursday - Frankenstein
We hope that everyone has a great Flag Day!
Remember the U.S. Flag today.
[I added the above because I was worried that bloggers might get confused
as to what holiday falls on June 14th. It is not Halloween!]
However, it is not readily known, but Frankenstein is indeed "buried right here in River City!" Lester Frankenstein and his wife, Bertha are buried at Mt. Sinai Cemetery.
[Tombstone Thursday is dedicated in memory of
Donald G. West 1952-2000]

What is it & Where is it?
This was found on an exterior wall
of a building in Evansville, Indiana.
I know what it is and what it is for, do any of our bloggers know?
Where is it? It can be seen from the street.

TSGS Meeting Program
'
Tri-State Genealogical Society
(TSGS) Meeting Notice!
When: Tuesday 12 June 2012 - 7:00 PM
Where: Willard Library - 2nd. Floor
What: Monthly Meeting
Becky West, TSGS Program Chair, has announced that the program will feature
"A Little Genealogy Humor" and an appearance by Indiana Bones. This will be Indiana Bones first public appearance. Indiana Bones (aka: John G. West) is a self-proclaimed "Cemetery Geek" as published in the Evansville Courier & Press recently. Indiana Bones will briefly show some suggested items that would be good to take on any field trip, especially a genealogical trip or "cemetery hopping!" He will have some tips on how to maintain good health and be safe. Indiana Bones will provide everyone with a list of important things to include in a First Aid Kit and a cemetery bag to help you find the graves you are looking for. Hopefully the program will be entertaining and give you some ideas to use on your next field trip!
During the short meeting, members will elect officers for 2012-2013.
