I just wanted to say that everything, including documents, paddles, history, charters, prior to 1980 were lost. So please don't blame any of the current or recent brothers for losing anything , everything was already long gone before I got there. I myself was very sad when I found out we had no history prior to 1980. I'm a HUGE local history buff and would have loved to read some of the original documents, etc.

What you might consider doing is trying to find out from IHQ who was active in the house at the time of the 1980 closing, and attempt to locate those folks to see who might have what items.
I did the same when UNC restarted in 2000. Although quite a few items have been lost (well, not really, but the bros that have the items fell off the radar screen) - but we were able to retrieve a few items from the original chapter. It took a lot of work and research, but once you get in touch with a few - they can lead you to other contacts, and so on, etc.....
