Subject: Re: To Denise McLoughlin - Regarding Watson C. Holbrook

Hi Denise -

Many thanks for making this biography available to me. It has provided me
with much additional valuable information. I have today spoken with Terry
Buckaloo at the Sterling-Rock Falls Historical Society, who also provided me
with additional information. Do you have any thoughts on how best I might be
able to research further Mr. Holbrook's life and work? In particular I am
considering making a weekend trip to you area for this very purpose. If you
know of anyone with similar interest that I could contact I would be most
appreciative, or if you are aware of which museums/historical societies
might have possessions or fossils obtained by this man I would be most
appreciative. Also, please let me know if a visit to your historical society
could provide me with any further insight/knowledge. Also, you wouldn't
happen to know if any family/descendents of Mr. Holbrook are still in the
area that I might be able to contact. Your thoughts on this quest would be
most appreciated. Many kind regards. Link to Watson C Holbrook bio:
