Beth,you're correct. Kay GRANT is the daughter of Lamar and Pauline GROCE. Lamar is the youngest of 10 kids born to William F. and Mary Roxanna (ROGERS) GROCE. There comes in the connection with Hettie Nell HORN. Her daddy was brother to Roxanna. Haley GROCE is the daughter of Roger and Faye (no longer married). Roger is brother to Kay GRANT. You're correct about the strong teaching genes! When I was in the hospital off and on for about 10 weeks when Beth (my daughter) was 2, Wayne's dad taught Beth her alphabet and numbers 1-10! She was reading by age 4, and would read my biology books when I was in college at UAM. And, of course, Wayne has been in teaching all these years.
