Kresha Kronicle
The Kresha Kronicle was a family newsletter that included letters collected from family members around the country. It started in 1975 and lasted for almost 30 years. It was started by Pat Kresha Thomas, who along with her husband published small newspapers.
These newsletters were found in a box at the old home place in an abandoned motor vehicle and rescued by Raymond Kresha, who digitized them in January of 2020. They are available here for you to download in a pdf and view online or print out, as you see fit.
They are organized by year and date, and do not necessarily match the volume numbers on the letters themselves.
