Hi Glenda, How nice to hear from you. Thanks so much for the information. It is interesting that they took a trip back to Missouri in 1930. Do you figure they were missed by the census in California during that trip. Hmmmm... I wonder... <g> I think it is wonderful that you can visit with your uncle. Those stories must be really neat and quite something special to save. When you feel like it perhaps you will be able to share some of them. We would all enjoy that. Would it help if I sent you all that I have on your line? Thanks again and take care - Emma In a message dated 11/25/2002 7:28:42 PM Central Standard Time, redtop@cell2000.net writes: > Hello, I am so excited to hear from you.
