About Me more
I grew up in St. Francois County, Missouri, which has a very rich lead mining history. I have a strong interest in local history and genealogy, and am always looking for pictures of historical significance to my community.

Hi, I have pictures I would like to send to you via email of mostly Elvins and surrounding towns - circa 1930 or earlier to 1950's - including class pictures from Elvins school. I thought that you would like to post them with your others. How do I get them to you? Sherrie

Hello! My family and I are extremely interested in your blackwell, mo pictures and locations!!! We actually just returned from a trip there where we were unable to locate Jeremiahs homestead and Williams. We did find Moon Town Cemetery. Please, please, please respond to me as we would love to know how you are related and what you know about this family! We also would like better 'directions' on how to find the old cemetery and stone homestead...please email to shakingourtree@yahoo.com. THANK YOU!!!! in advance for your time and effort. Jenne

The picture of the Tom Thumb wedding . . . I think the little boy is David Francis. Not sure about the girl. David lived next door to us in Flat River. I lived at 301 First Street. Mike Province

Just found this web site today and not that familiar with navigating thru it. I lived in Elvins as a boy and was wondering if you got a reply to your blog about the movie? If you did I would like to know more about it. Paul in Florida f15eagle@alltel.net

find this most interesting. the pictures brought lots of memories. St Joe Lead Co at one time had a movie made about the mines and the Roseland Theatre had special showings for people in the area and the miners. I would like to know if that is still available any where. Would love to see that as many of the local resident are in that movie.
