Hi!

I'm a senior studying at Temple University. I have lived in Olney for 12 years now. I am currently resaerching a paper on my neighborhood in my urban sociology class. I'm interested in talking about the change in the racial makeup of Olney from the 1950s to today. I'm interested in the stories people have about Olney: its history, their experiences living there, the people they knew, the businesses and community organizations that existed, and the condition of the neighborhoods from then and now. Anything anyone could share would be greatly appreciated! Also, if anyone has actual written information in books, magazines, websties, etc., I'd love to know which they are as well.

Thanks!
