I check eBay often for potential family finds.

This was a terrific find!

I purchased an 1893 Commencement Exercises program for Calais High School. As I mentioned, this one isn’t technically “my” family because 1893 was the wrong time period for any of my relatives to be graduating. I do recognize many of these surnames, though, and this program will be going back home to Calais, as a donation to its history.

This program is tiny, only about 2 inches by three inches and aside from a bit of foxing, it is in excellent condition.

This is a fabulous slice of Calais history.

Be sure to check eBay regularly for possible family finds. I have more success with places or more unique surnames.
