HILLSDALE

A Slagle Family History

The following history includes two pictures that show a building in Hillsdale village. The Slagle family members operated a postoffice on one side, and a store on the other. It is believed that they lived on the second floor.

This information, contributed by Connie Slagle Land, is also available for review at the Nemaha Valley Genealogical Society library in Auburn.
