Her husbands father also had an insurance book that had the following in it: McCaslin and Laws had a $1200 policy on their business, which ran from July 27, 1895 - July 27, 1896 and insured the following: "$1,000 on the two story frame shingle roof building. $ 100 on the counters and shelving, all while contained therein. $ 100 on the frame _____?______ cellar and ware room. Situated on the corner of State & North Street, 6 & on the Fire Map of Donnellson." Was this perhaps a general store? Frederick Krummel also had a general store and a carriage shop. My husband's father ran the store, which had become a Red and White store, until his death in the early 1960's. Leona Latham-Simonini, leesim@psln.com Lake Almanor Peninsula, California
