Saw in the other thread that Grammy is from London. Ask her if she knew Bill or Rosina Madden. My son in law is their Grandson

No, they weren't familiar to her.
She was born in '58 and later moved from there; although I do love the Dairy Darts fried Veggies.

I had to go a ways away from Nelson county to make sure I did not marry kinfolk.

No kidding, we moved to Bullitt County and the first young lady I meet, thanks to football, is a cousin, a third cousin but still a cousin nonetheless.

Her father was Rev. Franklin Ball of Providence, listen to me rattle on.
You undestand my parents struggle with ADD now don't you...

We went back to Providence a little while before F-I-L passed away and to see some little lady come to my wife and say: "Oh my baby, those eyes". It got to me because that was the first thing that got to me about Grammy; her feline, hazel, ice grey eyes.

Bill and Rosine would have been old enough to be her parents. ;-)

She still has an Aunt, Betty Marie Hubbard, sweetest lady on this earth in London.
Grammy is here in Louisville, her sister is in Jonesboro, Tennessee (Sulphur Springs) and her Mother and Father have both passed.
I will forever be grateful to the London area for Grammy.
