Unfortunately, I don't know much about my Dad's mother as she died when I was very young. My sister remembers going to her house, but I don't.Chuck Allennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2189728314897448501.post-14297191312246375472015-01-10T10:41:25.851-05:002015-01-10T10:41:25.851-05:00I have to laugh!

My grandmother's parents didn't want her to marry my grandfather because he was just a farmer, and they were merchants, so it was a step down socially. They skipped a revival service one Sunday night to elope. They told everyone the next day, then they set up housekeeping just north of Albany. In the 1930s, they moved north to New Castle, Indiana, so my grandfather could work in the new Chrysler factory. Over Thanksgiving this year, I was able to visit the Albany/Monticello area and find several graves of relatives.Annihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17107752242793690287noreply@blogger.com
