• A quick dash to tell you how delighted I was today [May 1, 1998] to hear from you!
My family (Sumner) also enjoys our family history & recently chatted with a cousin in Az (Las Cruces).
I am leaving Fl in a week for my new (70 year old) summer home in Lexington, Mi 25 miles N of Port Huron.
At that time my sister, daughter Terry & her daughter (an addition) will lovingly complete our assignment!! So watch your mail in a month.
