Dear Duchess

Saturday kept me and Sadie busy watching the Junco birds and gray squirrel with only a patio glass door separating us., flatten your nose into the glass. Next weekend they tell me we will be "On the Road between SW Colorado and NW Oklahoma.

The Junco's and Squirrel were feeding in our Spring Snow storm that dropped over 2-inches of snow North of Bayfield. Easter Sunday turned out nice and sunny, though, melting away the Saturday snow.

78 RPM Records

Though commonly referred to as 78's, ironically, none were designed to be played back at exactly 78 rpm. Even the term "78" is misleading, as the actual rpm later agreed on with the advent of the AC motor, is actually 78.26 rpm!

Hucklebuck of 1949 & Sinatra

The Hucklebuck sung by Frank Sinatra (1949) -- The Hucklebuck (aka Huckle-Buck & Huckle Buck) dance is considered a Risque, sexual type of dance which had its hey-day during the late 1940s early 1950s but goes back to the early 1900's. I haven't seen anything about it during the 1920s, though. Only that it might have originate at Savoy Records in NYC.

Staplers & George W. McGill

James says, "I received my April/May 2009 issue of History Magazine today. On page six was a story about Stapler history. In the story they mentioned the McGill Single Stroke Staple Press. So I Googled that title and this is one of the links that came up. I extracted the story from that link. My question is, Is this one of your McGill relatives? Just thought of you when I saw that name."

Them Louthans

Al writes, "Dear Duchess: I'm up here at our house in Rutherford County, NC, relaxing for a week. I was out in my shop and found a box of photographs of my mother's family. She and dad adopted me as a infant, and I absorbed some of the family history and folklore.

Mom's maiden name was Louthan. She grew up in the Short Springs community between Ashley and Ingersol, or north of Ingersol on the highway to Alva. The school house and cemetary were still there, the last time I was through there.
