Faye Wilson Leach Collection (in progress)
Description
An account of the resource
These items are from the personal files of Faye Wilson Leach.
The first set of items are from her membership in the social sorority XI Delta Pi. There are photographic slides, membership directories and event programs.
After that, the items are a bit more jumbled. Roughly, there are three kinds of materials:
1) Purely family items, including both printed items, such as letters, and photographs
2) Fairmount United Church of Christ items, including church directories and photographs
3) Wichita items, including materials about businesses and people.
Many of these items are recent, copyrighted, or refer to living people, so, while they are in the digital database, they are not available on the web-based interface. If you find something intriguing in this collection online, there is a very good chance that there are additional materials not online. You may search and view these in our library.

Title
A name given to the resource
Faye Wilson Leach Collection (in progress)
Description
An account of the resource
These items are from the personal files of Faye Wilson Leach.
The first set of items are from her membership in the social sorority XI Delta Pi. There are photographic slides, membership directories and event programs.
After that, the items are a bit more jumbled. Roughly, there are three kinds of materials:
1) Purely family items, including both printed items, such as letters, and photographs
2) Fairmount United Church of Christ items, including church directories and photographs
3) Wichita items, including materials about businesses and people.
Many of these items are recent, copyrighted, or refer to living people, so, while they are in the digital database, they are not available on the web-based interface. If you find something intriguing in this collection online, there is a very good chance that there are additional materials not online. You may search and view these in our library.
