| Note | This letter has no date, but it does appear to be early in George and Electa’s time in Grinnell. For that reason, I am dating it to 1857. If someone can figure out who Barber is, a more specific date might be inferred from the information that Barber has a one-week old boy at the time the letter was written. NO |
