Fayette, Iowa

   
   

September 2007

   

We could not leave Iowa without doing a little genealogy research on Gerry's side of the family.  Our first stop was to see Gerrie in Fayette.  For many years she and her husband, Dale, who passed away a year ago, hosted a family reunion and Gerry's aunts and uncles on his father's side attended.  Gerrie still has her genealogy material and we copied a few things that we missed last time.   Unfortunately, we did not get to see the 92-year old cousin who lives in the same area where Gerry's mother was born.  She was visiting her daughter in Cedar Rapids and we did speak with her by phone.
