Thank you to all of my readers for your encouragement over the years I have been writing about Albion history. I love learning about Albion, driving to the Michigan Library in Lansing, making printouts of old newspaper articles that I use as resources for my work. I appreciate your encouragement and support. If you are able to contribute to my work financially, it will help me to keep up with my work. My costs and time are not reimbursed by the newspapers that publish my work.
