I am looking for a copy of the book “Sand In Her Shoes” by Marianne Beel and have been told that you might have a copy for sale. We are planning a large family get together in Nebraska and feel it would be a way to introduce that part of Nebraska to the grandchildren. Please let me know if you know of how I can get a copy or if you have any suggestions of other books of earily Nebraska that would be good for this purpose.

I am looking for information on Frank Kendall. The wedding announcement from 1885 ” The Item” tells me that ” Mr Kendall is a successful business man in Valentine.” He married Cloe Ewing of Ewing, Nebraska on May 12, 1885. Can you give me any information on Mr Kendall?
Thank you.
