Loose newspaper clippings from page 10, 1931 - 1932
Scope and Contents
The scrapbook features newspaper clippings from society pages in Dayton-area newspapers from the 1920s to the 1980s. Additionally, several oversize clippings date to Peter Kuntz’s death in 1918. Many are engagement, wedding, and birth announcements documenting, textually and in photographs, the lives of women in the Kuntz family and other prominent twentieth-century Dayton-area families, including the families of Patterson, Talbott, Parott, Rike, Grant, Breen, Focke, Oelman, Mead, Deeds, and Cox, etc. Other clippings document vacations (especially to Sea Island, Georgia), hobbies (such as hunting and skeet-shooting), and parties these families participated in. Clippings from the 1960s and 1970s include articles about changes in the Kuntz business. Several miscellaneous local history articles are scattered throughout. One page includes news clippings about local men’s military service in World War II.
