    3. March is Women's History month, so thought it might be good to share something regarding our ancestral mothers.. If you have a story to tell, or found a good way to research those maternal lines, please share!! This story was shared with me by my mother's 1st cousin, Juanita. For all of you who knew Nora BENNETT DETHROW, my grandmother, you might get a kick out of this. I laughed until I cried because I could see her doing it!! "When Glen and I [came from Los Angeles} went to see your grandparents (about 39 years ago) we wanted to take them a gift and stopped at a ceramic ormental place and bought some things, including a bird bath that we thought would be beautiful in their yard. Nora just loved it.(?)When the birds came to bathe she got her gun and shot them!!! We were jolted, to say the least. She said the birds ate her no-nos." Tell us about one of yours!! Lanita
