Happy Anniversary to Us!

Primary Selections from Special Collections is a year old today!

That’s 52 Images o’ the Week prepped and captioned, decades of newspaper microfilm threaded onto machines, many boxes of old records dusted off and brought into the light, plenty of judicious editing, and a whole lot of fun.

Of the 86 entries we’ve published,  the three most popular appear to be A Flood of Images, Turkey Notes, and Come Josephine in my Flying Machine. 

We thank all of you who have discovered us and kept reading and for those of you who have been kind enough to leave comments.

There’s a lot of Davenport history left to be explored and many genealogy tips still to be shared.  So please join us for another year of Myths and Mysteries, Hysterical Histories, and Tree-Kickin’ Genealogy!
