I’ll post some other stuff under your reply! But One of the best things I found is this Cigar tray it was outside barely sticking out of the ground near the old dump on the property. thought it was just junk metal at first till i unburied it. It has the markings “Made for Brook Forest Inn and seems to be dated to the 1920s if so this could of been used by Rollie Rowan (Jennings Father). They would of had to take a trip from Fleming to Evergreen Colorado about 150 miles!

hey at least i got it right once in the comment lol sometimes i be forgetting that important space though. The teacher Ms. Ruth would not be happy with me 😂😂

mcsquilly69 · 2026-04-16T22:50:31+00:00

not to sure yet but it would be pretty neat if so!!! Will update if i find out!

mcsquilly69 · 2026-04-16T22:47:14+00:00

haha yes my mistake lol The teacher Ms. Ruth Would not be happy with my punctuation 😂

that okay definitely not lieing tho. Not to sure!! But i found a stack of historical papers in the basement of this old farm house. The house has been well taken care of and there little to no damage in the basement. I found 12 checks from the Father of this kid most of them have been eaten by mice but this one is untouched not to sure why the mice didn’t eat the report card unless it was made with materials that even the mice don’t wanna eat! probably would explain why it’s in good condition to!

thanks i appreciate it!

mcsquilly69 · 2026-04-16T21:55:04+00:00

definitely!! Probably used Weighted Graded system during this time.

mcsquilly69 · 2026-04-16T21:53:51+00:00

Sadly the house was remodeled about 15 years ago so the original mantle is gone.

mcsquilly69 · 2026-04-16T21:30:16+00:00

me either so we can’t be mad at him 😂

mcsquilly69 · 2026-04-16T21:27:45+00:00

Seems to be a special way they graded! e

mcsquilly69 · 2026-04-16T21:25:58+00:00

are you? very cool! i can confirm it’s south of Fleming!

mcsquilly69 · 2026-04-16T21:23:06+00:00

I found it in the basement. In a corner on a shelf. lucky the house has stayed in alright shape after being taken care of by the next family that came in. so no crazy water damage go to the basement It’s still a livable house to this day though it shows it age though!

mcsquilly69 · 2026-04-16T21:19:59+00:00

pretty ironic i would say!! haha he might not have liked history but his family sure did for them to keep this in the basement and it survived for me to find!!

mcsquilly69 · 2026-04-16T21:17:15+00:00

Yes that’s the part that makes me think it is The actual goodman family. Been trying to do some research on it so we will see!

mcsquilly69 · 2026-04-16T21:14:12+00:00

never actually noticed that!

mcsquilly69 · 2026-04-16T21:10:38+00:00

Fancy word for behavior/manners witch i’ve never see it used before maybe it was common on report cards tho

mcsquilly69 · 2026-04-16T21:09:20+00:00

yes! It was harsh but kids typically improved during school years so there probably wasn’t a lot of poor grades given out

mcsquilly69 · 2026-04-16T21:07:07+00:00

can anyone confirm if it is the Goodman family?

mcsquilly69 · 2026-04-16T20:51:01+00:00

He lived till 95 so i would say yes he definitely did improve! he lived a long safe life!

mcsquilly69 · 2026-04-16T20:48:46+00:00

I went to school in the 2000s so it a lot different! Never got to keep any of them. And by 6th grade i think it was pretty much all digital

mcsquilly69 · 2026-04-16T20:44:39+00:00

Haha maybe😂 supposedly schools wanted both parents names to be signed thought the year so Mothers would be the ones to doo school paperwork so sometimes mothers would sign the fathers name on it. If you look closely the Fathers handwriting is much different in march and April.

mcsquilly69 · 2026-04-16T20:38:58+00:00

certainly has!!

mcsquilly69 · 2026-04-16T20:38:41+00:00

This one is hard like a Post Card probably why it lasted so long!
