At
the January meeting of the Logan County Genealogical & Historic
Society in Lincoln, members and guests enjoyed an evening of looking
back at Lincoln's past.
The society has a nice and sizeable collection of photos of the
community as it would have looked in the late 1800s through the mid
1900s.
One such photo is being shown by LCG&HS member Diane Osborn
depicting Broadway Street at the corner of Kickapoo and looking
westward toward the railroad tracks.
