Annie Petrie Olson's Autograph Album

Provided by Jim Kendall.
I've prepared the spreadsheet below to share the contents of Annie Petrie Olson's Album . Annie's family - Adam Petrie, Elizabeth Moore Petrie and children George Walter, Edith and Annie lived in Unity from 1874 until 1888. This book must have been a Christmas gift in Dec 1879. I counted 71 pages in the album with inscriptions from friends and relatives (1879 - 1889). Each inscription is hand written, usually with name, date and town. Some of the calligraphy is wonderful. In paging through, I see Unity, Thorpe, Brighton, Chippewa Falls, Concord, Stockbridge, Colby, Eau Claire, Neillsville, Oshkosh, Milwaukee, Withee. Most of the entries are from Unity. I eventually hope to provide scans of every page. If you see a particular name of interest on the spreadsheet below, or one you can provide additional detail about specific entries, please contact me or record a response.
We'd also like to give John O'Hanlon a big "Thank You" for his help in editing the photos for this project.
