Description

This book takes the reader on a journey down memory lane from 1826, when St. Joseph was founded by Joseph Robidoux to the 1960's. A vivid picture is painted of what life was like in St. Joseph in the early 1900's to the 1960's with personal stories and photos by those who grew up in St. Joseph. Not only is the book illustrated with numerous pictures of this period, there are also excerpts from other historical writings that give the reader a better understanding of St. Joseph's long history. The "Illustrated London News" account in 1861 describes the people of St. Joe by claiming, "There is a wild look about the people of St. Joe. Nearly everybody carries a rifle..."In addition to the personal stories and photographs, there are chapters describing notable events, notable people and special timelines to assist the reader in keeping St. Joe's history in perspective. The personal stories are not only educational but also entertaining and sometimes humorous.This collection of stories, from those who lived it, will help the reader reminiscence a bit and will also be enjoyed by future generations wishing to discover more about their ancestors and what life was like in St. Joe in earlier times.Story Contributors: Rick Drozd, John Larry Flinchpaugh, Margery Jean Flinchpaugh, Phyllis Ann Nelson Flinchpaugh, Rodney Eugene Keyes, George Barry Nelson, Truman Nelson, Sharon Louise Roberts Patching, Jack Quinn, Bob Slater, Denise Bartles Tapia, C J Vetter, Clyde Weeks, and Dennis Weiser
