Guy Ball writes, "Evalene Pulati died this weekend. She was a long-time supporter of the Santa Ana Historical Preservation Society – dating back to [founder] Adeline Walker. She saved pieces of the French mansion including one of the fireplaces [now] at the Howe-Waffle House. ...She was a pretty important person to the beginning of the Society. See our memoriam at http://www.santaanahistory.com/.".

Gospel Swamp researcher Carolyn S. writes that she's looking for a 1937 article by Phyllis Carmichael, entitled, "A Brief History of the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints." Although the title doesn't indicate it, the article focused on the history of the RLDS church in Orange County. The article is referenced in one of Dr. Doig's books about Garden Grove. If you know where to find a copy of this article, let Carolyn know my posting a response in the "comments" section for this blog post. Thanks!
