New Altenburg Book

Mary Dillon has recently published a new book entitled, "Altenburg Beginnings".  I have spent numerous hours looking through this book and reading it.  It is a book which records the history of my new town of Altenburg, as well as other towns nearby.  I think this book would be fascinating for anyone who has their roots in this area.  It is packed with photographs from days gone by.  It also contains great historical information about many of the prominent families from this area.  In addition, many anecdotal stories are included which have been gleaned from the memories of several old-timers from around here.  This book is for sale at the Lutheran Heritage Center & Museum.
