Very interesting. We did family reunions when I was growing up. Families have scattered to the winds and not much has happened for years. Then a 1st cousin in Seattle had done a lot of family research and displayed it at the last reunion held near Mount Pleasant, Mich. which is where most of both my parents families grew up. My parents are buried about 12 miles from Mount Pleasant in a 4 site plot they bought in 1936 when they buried an infant daughter. Several years ago I discovered that it was a 4 site plot and there is one vacant. My older widowed sister, who lives in New Braunfels, Texas, wants to be buried there. Her husband was buried at sea years ago. I had the site improved by having new foundations poured for the monuments and some new top soil and grass. I will be visiting the site tomorrow as we are in Mount Pleasant to visit our granddaughter at Centeral Mich. U. She is a senior in the school of meterology. She will be turning 21. Lastly, part of the information in the family tree was that my Great, Great, Grandfather is buried south of Hillsdale, Mich. Last month we took a trip to Milwaukee, Wisconsin, to see the Union Pacific Big Boy #9014. On the way we stopped at the cemetary in Hillsdale and I found the monument. I was named after him. He was born in 1792 and died 1861. Very close to the dates on your ancestor monument. A newer monument has been placed there and I'm trying to find out who bought it.

Today's Featured Article - Grain Threshing in the Early 40's - by Pat Browning. The setting is rural Wisconsin, halfway between East Troy and Elkhorn, on Hodunk Road, our nation was at war, and I was 6, 7 and 8 years old. George was our "threshing neighbor." He was the one with the threshing machine, a JI Case on steel wheels, and he pulled it to our farm with a JI Case standard tractor also on steel. In those days, steel wheeled implements were common. The roads were general gravel, so the lugs cutting into them wasn't a problem. George would set up the thresher, s
