This is my grandfather's yearbook. His name is Sanford Elvin Carlson. Included are many "signatures" of his classmates. If you are researching and find yourself connected to the west side of Grand Rapids, you may find someone here. I was surprised to find a couple additional relatives from both my mother's (Ahlberg) and my fathers (Townsend) sides of the family. I attended school in this building on Turner Street in 1970 as a ninth-grader. At that time it was West Middle School, Union High School having moved to a new building on Tremont Blvd. in Grand Rapids.
