I just found out about this some time ago and was wondering if anyone would be willing to tell me something about Meda and maybe email a picture of her. My ggrandfather was known as Ward and came to Chariton Co., Mo. and took up farming. He later married GayZetta Lester and they had 3 daughters. He was blind a great deal of his life and lived with two of his daughters after his wife died. Any info would be appreciated.
