Mrs. Essie Nall & Northwestern Normal Alumni

A few weeks ago I shared this photo of Essie, Grace and Connie. That Essie Nall on the left was written about in 1943, in a local newspaper.

The 1943 article is about Essie Nall that my grandmother, Constance Warwick McGill, grew up and went to school with as they continued their friendship through the ages.

The article headlines read, "Mrs. Nall Long Active In NW Alumni Group."

It goes on to say, "A long-time member of the Northwestern Alumni association and one of its most enthusiastic workers is Mrs. Essie Nall. Mrs. Nall enrolled at the college on the day it opened, in 1898, and attended her first classes in the Congregational church before any college buildings were erected.

"Twice president of the Alumni association -- In 1933 and 1934 -- she is its secretary at the present time (1943). Mrs. Nall plans some day to write a history of the college."

Did Essie Nall ever write a history of the College? Has anyone out there run across this history? I would love to know more.
