Prairie Lea Cemetery, Brenham, Texas

Had an opportunity recently to travel to Brenham, Texas to visit the graves of Moses and Cecelia (Inglesby) Baine.  Cecelia is the daughter of our Alicia McKiernan (first husband named William Inglesby, second husband our Joshua Phelps).  The Baine family plot spans two plots: 69 and 70.  I took photos of all the extant gravestones.  The interment listing for each plot is below (as well as I could make it out).  The interment records are available on http://www.prairieleacemetery.com/ but they are transcriptions, not the original records.  There are duplicate transcriptions, poor spelling, wrong dates, etc. in the transcriptions.  The interments with a * in front of them have photos located here.  Items in [brackets] were added by me or were alternative dates/names given in the interment records.  [NA] means the information was not availabe.

Bethlehem Steel Notebook - Thomas Price Jones

My grandfather, Thomas Price Jones, worked for Bethlehem Steel for many years.  His job had something to do with measuring the thickness and quality of the steel.  He kept a work notebook that I have finally gotten scanned in.  It's located here.  He wrote a lot about Union strife and walk-outs. He also noted accidents and one man who was killed.  There are lots of names mentioned, so if you know of a relative who worked for Bethlehem Steel in Dundalk, Maryland in the 1950's it may be worth a perusal.
