I wanted to share the journal of my Aunt Jennie and the history of one side of my family.

I grew up in Nebraska and went to school at Nebraska Wesleyan University for two years.

Then continued my education at Colorado State College in Greeley and Western State College in Gunnison,CO

Most of my adult life has been spent in New York State where I taught art in elementary school and raised three children.

This Blog really is not about me but of course my ancestors had some influence on my life and values. I have wonderful memories of my Grandparents–Milo and Emily Smith.

I will add more family pictures to the Blog in coming days.
