Mount Carmel Red Cross

I am waiting for a call from the director at the Mount Carmel Red Cross; called there on Friday the 16th and was told she would phone Monday.

Mount Carmel is about two major towns east of here; the closest chapter of the Red Cross. I was calling about the Shamokin chapter which closed several years ago. When it was formed in 1917, Sarah W. Kulp, widow of Monroe H., was one of the officers, and I have been interested in this angle of my research for quite a while now. An organization of that type would undoubtedly keep documents and photos which would be important to my research. She was also one of the officers of the Shamokin Visiting Nurses Association in 1913, but that organization is also long shut down and I have not been able to locate any information on what happened to their records.
