TO  WHOM  IT  MAY  CONCERN:

I  AM  INTERESTED  IN  FINDING  OUT  THE  DATE  OF  CONSTRUCTION  OF  AN  OLD  DEPOT  IN  MY  HOME  TOWN  OF  STONEFORT,  ILLINOIS.  MY  FATHER  PURCHASED  IT  IN  THE  1965  FROM  THE  NEW  YORK  CDNTRAL  SYSTEM.  THE  RESOLUTION  FOR  THE  SALE  OF  THE  DEPOT  WAS  FROM  THE BOARDS  OF  DIRECTORS OF  THE  CLEVELAND, CINCINNATI,  CHICAGO  AND  ST.  LOUIS  RAILWAY  COMPANY.  THE  NEW  YORK  CENTRAL  RAILROAD  COMPANY  THEN  AUTHORIZED  THE  ACTUAL  SALE  TO  MY  FATHER.


ANY  INFORMATION  ABOUT  THE  CONSTRUCTION,  DATE  OF  CONSTRUCTION,  DEPOT  AGENTS  OF  THE  SITE,
AND  OTHER  RELATED  INFORMATION  WOULD  BE  GREATLY  APPRECIATED.

THANK  YOU  IN  ADVANCE  FOR  ANY  HELP  YOU  CAN  PROVIDE.

LINDA  BLACKMAN
