Hi, I know this isn't exactly related to genealogy but since this list has gotten active, I'm wondering if anyone remembers a lady who lived outside of Higbee (maybe nearer Armstrong) up until the mid-1970's who sold Iris grown on her farm. I have wonderful memories of visiting her with my mother and sisters and occasionally an aunt or neighbor in the spring each year to pick new varieties for my mom's own Iris beds. I suspect she had been there for sometime even at my first visit I can remember at age 3 or 4 as my mother could not go far on backroads and not get lost. I have a list of some of my mom's iris and have wanted to transcribe this but know there are some missing. One of which is an Iris supposedly named for this lady. Jane DeBellis Milton, FL

The Wagner family lived in the Yates area when I was a lad in the '50 and raised Iris', and there was also a lady down in Howard Co near Mt. Pleasant Church who also raised them, but at the moment I can't think of her name.
