Sunday Warm & rainy. rained all nite last nite.
We stayed home until 4:00 o'clock. Then went up to the funeral home where Mrs. Otey's bro. Don Hobbs lay corpse. To church tonite.
Footnote: Mrs. Otey was a friend of hers and I think she lived in Big Stone Gap.
My Note: Well today I got some more information about the Slemp/Williams families.
Rosemary Ely Jetton writes this about Janie Slemp. "Janie Slemp is my first cousin, the daughter of Valeria and Elbert Slemp. Valeria is my Daddys sister. You may remember C. B. Slemp her youngest brother. She lives in the rest home in Johnson City now."
Then I get this information from Sandra Reasor Hunt. She writes, "The Williams family lived next to Mom's family in Jonesville. The parents (Huey Mae and Hattie Mae) ran a little store where the neighbors bought coffee, sugar, and things they didn't grow. All the children had a middle name that began with "M". Mom use to be able to name them all in order but of course, those days are over. "
