A purse dating back to 1959 was found beneath the stage of CCISD's oldest school building which has now been converted to be a new community center after renovations.
The photos and journal entries inside the purse put together a timeline to lead officials to believe the purse belonged to a girl named Beverly Williams who should be around 76 years old. She may have lost it 65 years ago.
"The purse was full of what looked like a wallet and it turned out to be a diary," said Richard Lewis, vice president of the League City Historical Society.
"Picture it as today's Facebook: you're putting everything down. She wrote about her love life, who she broke up with," Lewis said.
It's still not clear whether Williams was a student at CCISD, but city and district officials are hoping they can locate her or her family, and reunite them with the long-lost capsule.
