Stan Jones discussed the value of interviewing ancestors for cute family antidotal
stories. He
informed us that there is Information in funeral homes, believe it or not. Check
neighbors of ancestors in the census records and their histories as there may
be some overlap of stories. Differences
in names and name changes were discussed.
Donna

FL and the DP.LA or Digital public library of America -
Lenore
