An Arizona woman<\/a> who bought a desk from Goodwill to refurbish ended up stumbling onto a discovery that provided another family with a fascinating insight into 100 years of family history.<\/p>\n

Jenna Franzoy of Gilbert, Arizona recently purchased an antique secretary’s desk for $20 at a Goodwill location and told Fox 10 Phoenix <\/a>that a “secret drawer” fell out when she brought it home and was tipping it over.<\/p>\n

In the drawer, Franzoy found a stash of historical treasures that included letters, newspaper clippings, songs, sports articles, and farm articles dating back as far as 100 years that appeared to all belong to one family.<\/p>\n

“My dearest Martha, mother has been writing to you and I want to write some too,” one of the letters said.<\/p>\n

“I found it to be really sentimental, and I was so blown away by it, so I knew if it was my family member, I\u2019d be even more blown away,” Franzoy said.<\/p>\n

Franzoy decided she would try to get in touch with the family in order to return the documents but only had the name Martha McCollough to go off of.<\/p>\n

“I just came to really understand this woman Martha, She reminded me a lot of my grandmother, so I decided to reach out,” Franzoy said.<\/p>\n

Franzoy posted about the discovery on Facebook and was contacted by a woman named Shirley Knight who said she was related to McCollough.<\/p>\n

“So apparently, this desk and the items in it belong to my grandmother, Martha,” said Knight, who found her own birth announcement in the trove of historical documents.<\/a><\/p>\n

“McCollough, Kenneth and Nancy had a girl – that would be me – September 4,” Knight said, reading the announcement out loud.<\/p>\n

“This was like an act of God<\/a> and I don’t believe anything is chance, to him be the glory,” Franzoy said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
