Hi Dave, (From Melissa Jamison)

I searched Newspaper.com for you and found some articles you might be able to use. You might also have these, but in that case, this could give you a more complete citation to use.

http://www.usgennet.org/usa/ne/county/richardson/whowhorc/whowhorc.html This is the Who's Who in Nebraska paper full page

The first one is a huge article published in the Dawson Herald in 1936. It was a historical edition about the history of Dawson and Noraville. The article started on page 5 of the Newspaper and was 42 pages long. (Page 7 and 46 were omitted since they were only advertisements) The Drapers weren't mentioned on all pages, but they are scattered throughout, so I made sure to make clipping of the entire article for you. I started on page 5 since that was the page of the newspaper, but it was the first page of the article

These are just a few, there are probably hundreds of mentions in the Dawson papers regarding members of the Draper family. Little society tidbits about school and who visited who, sickness, etc. I can clip these for you if you wish. I could help create a free space page to organize them all in one place, the amount of clippings are really overwhelming, lol. The ones I've added here, mention Ira, but if you need others, let me know.
