Pictured outside the Atlanta Museum on Wednesday morning are (from left) Barbara Burdett, Paul Adams, Corky Cheek and Bill Johnson.

Burdett is doing research for a book she plans to write about her father, R. Marlin
Baker, who was an attorney in Lincoln. The three Atlanta history buffs are trying to help find information for her book. She will be writing about what it was like to contract polio back then and how it affected her father's life. Adams knew Baker personally, and Cheek and Johnson are helping by offering background on what life was like in the Atlanta area "back in the day."
