In addition, over 60 volumes were donated on Texas and local history. A special web site has been created for Internet access and will contain many original documents on early Texas history and the area's local history. It is hoped that other local history collections can be obtained in the near future. San Jacinto College is striving to become the central depository of area history documentation. By preserving the documents of our history and heritage, interested parties and future generations will have access to this wealth of information.
History is made by the ordinary person simply trying to survive.
We must save and cherish those memories as they are our history and our heritage. Karolyn Gephart of the Houston Chronicle writes about the donation in Hunting for History.
