Hello, I have been searching for video footage of my father dancing on Teenage Frolic, while he attended Shaw University, during the years of 1965 thru 1969. His name is Raymond Whitaker and was the only person to dance on the show from Middlesex, NC. If you could please assist me in any way, I would be grateful.

Is there any reference here (dating most likely to 1842-45) to an officer, Lieutenant Edward J. Steptoe of the Lynchburg, VA, vicinity? They’d likely have met, per one of EJ’s letters, at Red Sweet Springs, VA?

Comment on American Party scrapbook, ca. 1856. by Linda Chambers

Generally, we think of scrapbook projects that are memories of a persons life and times. This scrapbook covers much more than that. This scrapbook covers a nation’s change, problems, solutions, and the controversy of the times. It is truly a slice of every American’s history.

Comment on James A. Hutchins Scrapbook and Other Papers, 1927-1987 (bulk 1930s-1940s). by Linda Chambers

This is an interesting scrapbook which centers around one of the first achievements of James A Hutchins. We often collect these scraps of paper, pictures, tickets that are so important at that isolated moment in our lives. These are put away in boxes in the closet until someone brings them out and puts them into some order in a scrapbook for everyone to enjoy.

Comment on Lawrence Gellert scrapbook, 1930s. by Linda Chambers

Most of the time we think of a scrapbook having pictures, newspaper articles, and other documents from our history. This scrapbook couldn’t be prepared that way as the history had to come from stories handed down from one generation to the other, sometimes written but most told. Still, this is a scrapbook of people, the events they had, and a history that needed to be recorded.

William Asbury Whitaker was my great uncle. I am trying to find out information on his paternal ancestry, particularly who his paternal grandparents were. Any information would be helpful.

Thank you.
