Postcard From Mom & Dad...8-10-90

This is the front side of the postcard postmarked 8-10-90 that Mom & Dad sent me from Buzzards Bay, Massachusetts while visiting my sister JoAnn and Brother-in-law Gene Grant & family.

I found this postcard while thumbing thru some old books of mine that were in a box. At the time the postcard was sent to me I was working on the island of Kauai in Hawaii as a finish carpenter. I probably used the postcard as a bookmark and today I opened the book to read the card again some 18 years later.

Gene Grant, my Brother-in-Law was born in the Boston area on Sept. 14, 1936. He married my sister, JoAnn on Feb. 8, 1964 at St. Clara's Chapel in St. Louis County, Missouri. I was the altar boy at their wedding.

Simmons Family tree 4

Wiley B. Simmons was born Nov. 13, 1830 in the hills of Claiborne, Tennessee. As you can see he traveled to Dent County, Missouri and passed on there in Oct. 1, 1906. This is his Simmons Family Tree.

Caroline Matilda was born in Virginia in about 1726 and that is as far as I can trace my ancestors on the Simmons' tree.
