Notes: Aunt Georgie, (never Georgia) was married to Russell Greer, my Granny's(May Dean Greer/Stover/Arndt) brother. She was a sweet welcoming woman that would give me cuttings from her lovely yard. I remember a money tree in particular. She had swollen ankles that always looked very painful but I never heard her complain.
The Greers lived in the San Francisco area when we were there. Cousins George Edward, Nancy, Charles and Bryce at that time. Years later came Irvin and Naaman after they moved to Salt Lake City then those boys came back to Baldwin.
I remember visiting them when I was about 4. Bryce and I played on the hill behind their house. We were sliding down the hill and I ended up with a bottom full of cactus thorns or maybe it was stickers. It made a strong memory anyway. : ) I also took my first photograph there. It is my mother's head in front of Uncle Russell's house.
