Doctoral diploma

[edit]

I found J.H. Washburn's German doctoral diploma in some family records a few years ago, a giant thing the size of a large pillowcase, on animal parchment, stored in a sheet-lead tube. It should be with my sister Morgan Harris-Park in Brookhaven, Ga. now. I believe he was my 3-g'uncle (my father's mother was Harriet Miller Harris (1917-2009) one of J.M. Merrow's heiresses). She told me JHW's dismissal from URI was because he was an inveterate practical joker. Enon enon~.~harris~at~gmail 2600:1702:5A27:9A10:B839:B718:DECE:78E6 (talk) 22:12, 8 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
