| Bio History Note | With the span of the yearbooks stretching from 1939 - 1947 ---- and with a name change from Richard Barnhart to Corp. and Mrs. Richard Barnhart --- it could be that Richard left college to join the military during WWII and returned to school, with a wife, following military service. This is an undocumented idea and the Archivist will try to find out more after contacting Mr. Barnhart's wife. |
