RANDOM NOTES part 1
In the old trunk, there were several notepads where Martin Ervin Brooks Jones recorded information. It seems that he always had a pad with him. Inside these notepads, I found a variety of information. Without anyone to give me any knowledge of what he recorded, I began researching some of the names and infomation listed.
I will start with a flip book that only had 5 sheets that were written on. I tore them out and disposed of the notepad. It's always SO hard to get rid of things from the last turn of the century.
I labeled these as Random Notes. As to the date of these notes, my guess would be around 1910/1920
I also wrote a transcription, trying my best to get it correct. Handwriting is always a factor in transcription.
