The news is getting around about the project. Two new people contributed this week that are not descendants of Chauncey but believe it is a "worthy cause." They are Dean Rock of Mountain Green who sent in one dollar and Paula Campbell Howell of South Weber contributed five dollars. Paula is my second cousins, descendants of Erastus Bingham whose fort Chauncey first lived in when he came to Ogden.
Descendants Kevin McCurley, Michelle McKnight, Lynnette Richins, and Marilyn Larsen contacted me this week, each glad that there will be a new monument on Chauncey's gravesite and pledging support.
The Chauncey W. West Monument Fund account now has a balance of one-thousand ninety-one dollars and thirty-nine cents ($1,086.39)
A GREAT BIG THANK YOU TO ALL
Expect to include a drawing of the new monument and a firm cost by first post in June. More about Chauncey will be posted next week.
Notify every descendant you know of this blog and encourage them to participate. Thank you
