MY NOTES:  I remember Aunt Ruby as being very matter of fact.  She did smile a lot though.  One Easter mother & daddy had gotten each of us girls a colored chicken.  When they reached a certain age we took them out to Aunt Ruby & Uncle Dave's farm so they could finish raising them. The next thing I remember is sitting at Aunt Ruby's table for a HUGE feast - you guessed it - fryed chicken!

Uncle Dave was always a favorite Uncle to me.  Our youngest son, Mickey David Winfield, is named after him.  As long as I live I'll never forget the farm in Nebraska.  The grain storage shed, the pigs and Uncle Dave (I was 5) giving me a penny for each tail I could curl.  Once Uncle Dave and Aunt Ruby moved to Missouri we didn't get to see much of them.  Did get to spend one Thanksgiving with them - I was a freshman in college - Mother drove there from Nebraska and I flew in from Oklahoma.  Uncle Dave and Mother met me at the airport and drove me to the farm.  Have a beautiful picture of both Aunt Ruby and Uncle Dave on their 50th Wedding Anniversary that Mother sent me.  I highly prize it!  VLWW February 2001.

Sister was Isla Mae Tyson! - Aunt Roxie spent Christmas at her home in 1972

8 December 1976 -- According to Christmas card to LEJW Hockman Aunt Roxie's father passed away last August.  Her mother was still alive and was "very active for a lady soon to be 80 yrs. old."  Aunt Roxie was living in Grand Island at the time and still working at the hospital.


194. Faye Evelyn JONES

MY NOTES - Family story is that Aunt Fay had a baby girl before Melvin was born.  The child was either miscarried or died after Aunt Fay was scalded with water from a large pot falling off the stove.  Aunt Fay's life and marriage were never the same after this.  Need more information about this.

Carol W.L.G. left a note for me saying this accident happened to Aunt Fay "while she was yet in school and why she never gradudated.  She did NOT return to school!?"
