THE QUESTING HEIRS ARCHIVE 
Six Founding Members

Printed documents that record the history of an organization are important in their own way; but, isn’t it much more fun to see this group of QHGS founding members “in person” at a 1974 meeting?

Front Row L to R: Molly Molyneaux, founding member, past president, and education chair; Frances Parker, founding member, secretary, and newsletter editor; and Viola Olson, founding member. 
Back Row L to R: Martha Hess, founding member, Society librarian, and cemetery records project committee chair; Marshall McClanahan, founding member; Ruth Dowty, founding member, Society librarian, and publicity chair; and Florine Davis.

RESEARCH TIP: Label your photographs! The picture above is 41 years old, and all of the founding members in it have passed away. We know the identities of these people only because the compiler of our first scrapbook wrote their names under the snapshot.
