Dear Jeri and Geroge, It was nice seeing your email. Tell George Happy Birthday and many many more. My granddaughter had her 11th birthday in 50's style. I made 4 big and 1 little poodle skirts. They turned out cute. I am getting to go to Wales and wished all the cousins I met in Uniontown, Pa. could go too. You all, Terry and Joe D. Whenever I see anything on Civil War I think of George. I know fromwant I remember that he was big in that. You all take care. Take lots of pictures of George's birthday so we can see. I know there will be lots of pictures taken in Wales and Becky will have them on her website. Love Joyce Gail -----Original Message----- From: George W.
