Had a call from an '04 alum who had heard from his mother, who worked with Ken O'Brien when the county historian materials were here in the early '90s, that there was a set of GAR (Grand Army of the Republic) books here. I told him I was here then, but didn't recall those in that collection, and anyway, when the county historian office moved back to Rochester the materials went there. Also mentioned Bill Andrews Brockport and the Civil War book, the book on the 140th etc.
Interestingly enough, the conversation then turned to the fact that this alum had done some interviews with Mirko Plyshenko c2000 about Mirko's role in bringing the Soviet sculptor Tseretelli here who crafted our Special Olympics statues. See next post!
