John H Recalls a very Old Settlers Weekend

Here's a note from Genies' friend John H. 

Since this is Old Settler's Weekend in Ferndale, I thought you might be interested in these photos of my ggggrandfather Nicholas Sheffer with some of his early pioneer friends. I believe the photos are from 1905. One shows downtown Ferndale during the parade!

The 2018 Old Settlers Parade will be much different this one 113 years ago.  The roads have improved too. Wouldn't you say?

 The Grand Parade starts at 11 am Saturday morning on the corner of Washington Street and 3rd Avenue.

Thank you, John
