In 1941 the Student Body and Faculty of Weimar High School, Weimar, Texas added a feature to their yearbook The Claw which I think is most unique. They listed many of the past graduates (and in some instances students). Their list began with the most recent, but for our purposes, I am listing them in reverse order. Dorothy Albrecht

1924 - 1941The earliest list began with the following notation:
THE FOLLOWING LIST IS ONE WHICH HAS BEEN COMPILED WITH THE ASSISTANCE OF SEVERAL OF THE EARLY STUDENTS OF THE OLD WEIMAR INSTITUTE AND OF THE VARIOUS PUBLIC SCHOOLS TAUGHT IN WEIMAR PRIOR TO 1900. WE REALIZE THAT THERE ARE MANY MISTAKES, ERRORS, AND OMISSIONS, BUT HOPE THE READER WILL KINDLY DROP US A CARD OR NOTE INFORMING US OF OUR ERRORS. THROUGH JOINT EFFORT OF THE ALUMNI, WE HOPE TO BUILD UP AS NEARLY AS POSSIBLE, A COMPLETE RECORD OF STUDENTS. MAIL YOUR CORRECTIONS TO THE CLAW, WEIMAR, TEXAS
