April 1940, Mr. and Mrs. Mason Piddock to Move

This clipping was found in a 1939-41 scrapbook kept by former Mannsville School teacher Miss Marion Pike. Ms. Pike’s relatives donated the scrapbook to the library in December 2022. It is on display in the library and visitors are free to go though it and maybe find a little piece of their own family history.
