When former Carrollton resident and now retired Godfrey IL attorney Philip Alfeld
purchased a small world globe at a neighborhood yard sale last summer, little did he
suspect it would tell a most interesting story of local (Greene County) boy making good.
But it did! And that story will be told at this meeting.
The story was recently told in the September, 2025, issue of PIONEER TRAILS,
the Society’s official quarterly newsletter. It will now be told – in person – by Bill
Tunison of Osceola, WI, great-great grandson of Henry Tunison.
