I just wanted to say that I have thoroughly enjoyed your site. It is a great tribute to Porterdale and the people who live or lived there. I think I've read every word on here - but whenever I come back you have more. You are obviously putting a lot of work into this!
 
My mother is Ruth (Baird) Shaw. I grew up visiting my grandmother Eula (Dick) Baird on Hazel Street in Porterdale. But I haven't been there in many years.
 
I have many of my mother's photos that I've been scanning and trying to preserve. I've asked her permission to send some to you for site - she has photos of graduations and classes at Porterdale school. Would you like those photos? If so I'll send them as soon as she gives her permission.
 
Thanks for going to this trouble - it's a real gift to those of us with an interest in Porterdale and the people who have lived there.
 
Thanks,
Beth Shaw Roszel
