Garage Sale
The Brown County Genealogical Society board has decided to participate in the Hiawatha City wide garage sales May 5th and 6th. We will be having early bird sales on May 4th from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., May 5th from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. and May 6th from 8 a.m. to noon, as a fund raiser. We are looking for your “junk” to become someone else’s treasurers! We are asking NO clothing donations. We will begin accepting donations beginning April 6th at the genealogy library.
Memorial Day Flowers
Memorial Day is May 30th. The Brown County Genealogical Society will again be having our Memorial Day flower fund raiser. We (volunteers from the society) will place flowers on your ancestor’s grave in Brown County, for a donation. It is $10 per cemetery for one grave/headstone and $1 for each additional grave/headstone in that same cemetery. We have a number of nice flower arrangements that have been donated by members. Please be sure to tell us which cemetery your ancestor is in and if you know, a brief description of the headstone/grave marker as well as location in the cemetery (if you don’t know it is not a problem we have many maps and we should be able to find it.)
