My mother, Grace Pauline Simpson was born in Washington, Iowa on 1, Sept. 1909 She married William F. Clough in Washington on 27 Aug 1929. Parents of Grace: Sarah Coru Dencker was born in New Jersey on 26 June, 1887 She married George Lyman Simpson in 1907 or 1909 Parents of Sarah: Henry Dencker and Lucrita Vlereboom - I have a lot of information on the Vlerebooms and none on Dencker. Lucritas brother died in Washington, Iowa Henry was a Sunday School Teacher for many years in Washington, Iowa. Have a wonderful day everyone.
