Hi again Karen

I've finally received the Lang history book. The Heffernan family history is just a thumbnail sketch... exactly as the Village of Lang had emailed to you.

There is, however, two group pictures... one including Orland and one including both Blanche and Rowena. I'd love to send them to you if you'd like.

Also, there are these interesting words:
"About April 20th, 1906, Messers Cave and Heffernan went into partnership and were the leading carpenters and contractors for Lang."

Happy day to you,
Donna
