Meloinda, I was reading all these arguments about "chit-chat" and unnecessary conversation, and thinking how many times I have found an ancestor I didn't know I had through just such (to me)aimless conversation as this. So let's keep talking. What is important to you may be very, very important to me, and I wasn't even looking for it. In the meantime, does anyone know of a Kenneth Green, b. unk, who married Vera Simmons, daughter of Grant Simmons and Dona Hunt Simmons. They lived in Lawrence County, Mo. in the 40's. She was born in Kansas. Pat
