Presbyterian Church & Cole Bros. of Alva

Kathy says, "Do you by any chance know the web addy for The First Presbyterian Church in Alva??? All I can come up with is general stuff...where it's located ... etc.? I know they had one several years ago .... but can't remember the addy....

Wish I could help with information about the Cole Bros. from Alva.? I know where that building is.? Do not ever remember my grandparents or parents mentioning the name though. Mother was a great historian and knew all kinds of stuff about early Alva. My great-grandparents, Joseph and Emelia Miller lived across the street from the Cole Bros. building (think their address was 519 Choctaw, but the house isn't there any more .. torn down years ago ... probably when the new Red Bud grocery store was built ... now the Bouziden(?) building).

Here's a bit of nostalgia for you.? You know where the O'Reily Parts building is?? Well, a lady named Mrs. Eutsler use to live in the big white house on the corner...had a humongus Lilac bush in the front yard.? The house was still there when you and I were in high school.? I knew the lady.? The house was torn down when O''Reily Parts was put in (Mrs. Eutsler had passed years before ... she was a friend of my?grandparents, the Louis Millers' .)?

?Let me know if you come up with something for the Presbyterian Church.
