Dad's house - Lowell

Where my Father lived for several adult years. I think just before he was drafted in 1940. Perhaps from age 18 until 21 or 22. My sister thinks this was built in the 1880's

Graves - Grandpa and Grandma Peet




Nancy and Kathee found it. I had not seen it since childhood. Oakwood Cemetery, Lowell

Graves - Grandmother and Grandfather



Grandmother and Grandfather on my Mother's side. Granddad died just months after my birth. Grandmother remarried several years later to Gordon Fleet. At the Bowne Center Cemetery

Graves - Cary and Starr





Comments: Cary and Starr were my first cousins on my Father's side. Their mother, Ella, was Dad's sister. These are at the Bowne Township Cemetery near Alto MI.
