My mother is the great granddaughter of James Manfred and Anna Dale Smith through their daughter Myra who married Glen Davidson. Their daughter Anne Shirley Davidson married Archie George, and they are the parents of my mother. Many of my extended family members live in the west, in Montana, Idaho, Washington, Oregon (most), California. I'm moving to Colorado in the summer. If you do an Ancestry search of any of them you should be able to find the family tree my mother is building. She has accomplished a lot to build the tree in the past few days thanks to the amazing work done by cousins like you. We are attempting to get more information from my grandmother, and will try to get some from her sister. My relatives are notoriously close-mouthed! There is a story in my family about your grandmother Virna, that she died at 17 - so it would be great to find out what the whole story is since this doesn't seem to be the case. Maybe it was a different sister? Thank you! Kirsten Gunderson Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
