This is a lovely little find I brought home from an antique store a few weeks ago. It's filled with short verses from friends and family of a girl named Charlotte. I have scanned the pages in order but you can see by the dated entries that people did not sign the book in order.

 I'm trying to determine who Charlotte may be based on names of cousins, friends, and teachers and the place of entries: Jennings, MO, Erfurt Germany and Berlin Germany. Some of the entries are written in German. If you want to help me do some sleuthing to figure out who Charlotte is I gladly welcome it. First and last names written inside are:

W.B. ANDERSON, Mrs. W.B. ANDERSON, Jennie BAGNELL, Mrs. Rose BERGER, C. Orrick BISHOP, C.H. BREDENMEYER, Caroline A. BRIER, Hannah B. BRIER, Robert E. BRIER, Beulah M. BRUNNER, Max BURCHHAROLD, Siegfried BURCHHAROLD, Emma S. BUSS, Elsie DICKMANN, E.J. DOUGHERTY, Hetty Q. EVANS, Mary EVANS, W. FRIEDEBERGER, Ida Louisiana GOSSOW, Kathe GUMPOLD, Fritz LABOR, Curt LAMM, Erick LAMM, Lola LAMM, Martin LAMM, Paul LAMM, Willy LAMM, M. MICHAELS, Joe RAWLINGS, Alice S. SMITH, Ida SMITH, Harriet M. SMITH,  S.V. WANG, Georgia (Charlotte's daughter signed in 1933).

I hope you enjoy the beautiful handwriting and sweet verses inside.
