In the article "A Genealogical Exhibition", PGM, XXXI, 48, the memorial brass rubbing, ca. 1603, of Richard and Elizabeth (Twyne) Brooke was done in 1973 by Scott M. Wilds, not by Robert Brooke as stated in the article. The editor regrets the error and offers apologies to Mr. Wilds. In the Annual Report, PGM, XXXI, 64, under Fellowship Committee, it was announced that no new Fellows had been elected in 1978. This is an error, the election of Dorothee Hughes Carousso occurred in March 1978. See PGM, XXX, 209. We apologize for the omission. Under Information Wanted, PGM, XXXI, 74, for Wible family, the figures for the birth date of Martin Wible were transposed. The correct date is 1839, not 1893 as printed. We are pleased to announce that one of our members, Helen E. Davis, has been awarded the first prize in the 1979 Parker Genealogy Contest sponsored by the Maryland Historical Society. Her work, Kindred: Stansbury-Davis-Lines, published by Dorrance & Company, Ardmore, Pennsylvania, is a carefully detailed genealogical study which traces the ancestory of the Davis-Stansbury families in Pennsylvania, Maryland and Virginia. Miss Davis has retired after working for thirty years as a librarian at the Logan branch of the Philadelphia Free Library. She lives in Newtown, Pennsylvania. 190
