Notes |
From Martha Rinn: "This hand-embroidered map of the ALC Southern District was made by [Olevia Ray George Anderson] who worked in the district offices for my Dad, Vernon Mohr...I believe she made it for my father when he retired from the position of Bishop in 1977 or 1978, whatever year he actually retired." Bishop Mohr retired in 1978. |
