For David Lodge,

I have a copy of The Tribe of Jacob by N Louise Lodge. The book came with
Lynn White's materials. This copy was a third edition, copyright 1934. Lynn
saved her order form in the book so I know what she purchased this copy in
1986 from John E Chandler--Books, Chicago, 312.929.8298. I have no idea
whether this firm is still in business.

As to finding a copy of the book now, I would try online sites which list book dealers.

How sad to learn that Lodge's papers were destroyed. It's really too bad that
no provision was made for the papers or that the Ladies Home could not make an
effort to find a relative who would take them. Who knows what important links
might have been contained in those papers. Let this be a lesson to all of us
to make arrangements for our papers and other materials.

I'm sorry to misstate Louise Lodge's death date. I should have said "about
1936" since I didn't check my notes and was writing from memory--a dangerous
thing to do as time goes on.

Thanks for filling us in on Louise Lodge. The other publication she had a
hand in, I believe, was called "Everybody's Ancestry." I have no copies of
this publication but I believe there were about four issues published and I
think the time frame was 1917. I have seen photo copies of selected pages of
this publication and I think that it was a genealogical publication that was
not confined to the Piatt name.

Sorry I couldn't be of more help concerning Lodge's publications.
