Edwards Church Membership group index cards


 In amongst some of the paperwork I got from my mother was a set of index cards.  Each one appears to be some sort of record of dues being paid but I had know idea what they were from.  Originally I thought they might have something to do with the store my Great Grandparents Merrick Smith and Catherine McCann but the dates and locations seem wrong.  After further research, I think it has to do with a group my Grandmother Florence Smith was part of tied to the Edwards Church in Northampton, MA.  Though these cards don't have much to do with the family, I feel like they may be useful for other genealogists and therefore I am going to work on transcribing them.  I'll enter them here and keep a full list on the Putnam Wright Chronicles site.  To get an idea of what the payments were worth, it looks like $0.25 in 1921 would be about $30 in 2022.

Genealogical source-A dog's registration record

This is a bit of a random post, but I found the registration document for one of the family dogs as I was going through some old papers  It has a bit of useful information so I thought I would share.

So, what can we learn from this:

The Family got an Irish Setter named Irish Prince Rufus (Prince) on March 20th, 1965.  Prince was the son of Cohansey Irisjman and Ricci's Lady Ginger and was born on December 31st, 1964.  The family was living at 13 Cragmere Rd. Wilminton, DE at the time.  The got my father's first initial wrong.
