  Mrs. Minogue knew what she was doing; Adelaide E. Minogue was author of The Care and Preservation of Records (Bulletin of the National Archives #5, 1943), and articles on related topics.

  How cool that we have a picture of her!

  Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Hay Bales Valley, and we'd love to have this added to the group! Amazing.
