Hello!
I just purchased a wonderful old violin case on Ebay. I removed the lining to replace it with a better one which would secure my violin. In very faded writing, I found a list of names inscribed on the back interior panel of the violin case!
The names appear to be six of the descendents of William Virtue, 3rd generation on the list posted by Sydney above. Apparently the kids were fiddlers. :-) The only clearly legible name is Delbert, however with the help of the list, I can also make out the names Burletta Virtue and Curtis M. Virtue. I'm hopeful that with a magnifying glass and a bright light, I can also identify the other Virtue children.
I will photograph and document the writing before it is covered again and will leave the lining loose so that this little bit of history won't be forgotten.
Best wishes,
Claire Warren
