Bio History Note | L. W. Teeter married Nancy Ellen Bowman in 1966. She died in 1915. Daniel Teeter might have been L. W. Teeter's father (see Brethren Encyclopedia) - {"The Sacred Melodeon Containing a Great Variety of The Most Approved Church Music...,"by A. S. Hayden, 1853 - discarded from collection due to possible mold.} The E. N. Goshorn memorial collection contained a currently unknown number of books. Five of these books are contained together in this box. Some of the books contain E. N. Goshorn's signature. One book contains, E. N. Goshorn, Mt. Morris, Ill., Nov. 29, 1889. It is a possibility that the name of E. N. Goshorn was given to Manchester College's "Goshorn Building"? |
