“…Dad, Gerald, Kenneth & I took Alton to Chicago. Tuesday we went to the bird sanctuary and saw the millions of birds…Wednesday went to Lake Odessa and saw all the 2nd cousins…another trip to Lake Odessa after Alton came back from Chicago.”
Alton loved to travel his entire life. The Michigan cousins held a reunion in 1975 when Alton and his wife made a trip there. My husband & I have visited many of these same family members and their descendants since 1985. We were especially close to Laura Black French. She had beautiful penmanship and wrote the loveliest letters into her late 90’s.
Thank you for looking.
