Hi Suzzee,

My name is John Gatchel, and I used to be vice president of W. D. Gatchel & Sons (my father was president). We started out as a camera store way back in 1862 and in the 1970's moved into printing supplies. In 1999, my father sold the company to a competitor and has since retired. I'd be happy to answer any questions you may have, feel free to drop me an e-mail...take care -jg

I am looking for information on Albert B. Thomas who had a son, Corban Gatchel Thomas born ~ 1908 in Seventy Six, KY. Corban was given the middle name of Gatchel because his father, Albert was a part time photographer. Family history says Gatchel company had asked that Albert bring Corban to Louisville because of baby pictures of Corban, but he did not do so.
