Note: Aunt Minnie had two sons that lived to adulthood. Lawrence and Shelby. Shelby was in WW II and returned home suffering with "jungle fever" (her words). Aunt Minnie owned a Victrola (hand-crank type) that she allowed me to stand on a chair and "help" her operate. She also made the best blackberry cobbler and apple pies imaginable. She corresponded with me until 1949.
