In
November 2011, I purchased a scrapbook at an antiques mall in Carson,
California. The scrapbook is believed to have belonged to Laurine Wyatt. I am
transcribing the articles and documents contained in the scrapbook with the
hope that it may be of value to genealogists who may be researching the
individuals named.
This is one of the few items in the scrapbook that mentions
Laurine Wyatt. In what I believe was a short play presented by the John L. Hill
B.Y.P.U. (Baptist Young Peoples Union), she was cast in the role of a shop girl.
Perhaps because she was a shop girl at Tinsley’s department store? Several of
the surnames in the program are familiar from THE FIDELIAN, the class paper of
the Fidelis Bible class of the First Baptist Churc
“JOHN L. HILL
