I was a Smith. Lived in Boody from 1945 -1952. My father was born there in 1901. Reid Smith. I am related to most everyone that lived in Boody in the early days; Smith, Schenck, Warnick, Burke, Morey, Nientker, Williams, etc. My name was Helen Smith. I attended the Boody Grade School, at first it was just a two room school house, 4 grades in each room. Then they took in all the country schools and we became a 4 room schoolhouse, 2 grades per room. I visited there last year and walked the town with my cousin, Jan [Morey] Carpenter. The Nientkers ran the little store when I lived there. Ora Nientker was was my grandmother Smith's sister. When Wesley Nientker died his daughter and son in law took over the store, P.E. & Helen Conrad. I went out to Stonington last year and got to go into the store, it was moved out there several years ago. Mrs. Damery purchased it in memory of her husband. It was a real walk back in time to stand in that store. Hope we have a connection somewhere.
