LETTERS FROM THE PAST

This blog is to honor those who have come before us. These are family letters that I have had for years and wanted to be able to share them with family. It's an interesting way of knowing how life was in the past.

LETTERS FROM THE PAST

Myron F Taylor with 3 of his buddies in 1952. Over the last 20 years I've been working on our family letters. Letters that have been passed down. Including letters from my parents to my great-grandmother. Every letter was saved by my great grandmother and grandmother. I hope someday to either print them or give them to a museum. I am copying the letters–not being able to photocopy all of them. Each letter is in script. I know today very few can read them. I hope you enjoy them.

Post Card Sept 9, 1948



 



It's times like this I wish the last name was signed. I have both sides (TRUE and BIRGE) that this could go to or come from. One of these days I will figure it out. I believe this is one of Solon's siblings children, as the True family all moved to OR from KS and OH.

1919 Golden Wedding Celebration!

 



"Father, Mother & Uncle Will True" 

That would be Solon Campbell True married to Sarah Anna Birge True married 11 Nov 1869, Tebo Township, Henry Co, Missouri. 

William "Will" Merit True b 27 Dec 1857, Mercer, Mercer, Missouri, d. 18 Feb 1938, El Reno, Canadian, Oklahoma. (He was married twice)

I wish they would have said who the one behind William is. It is probably one of the 2 other brothers of Solon. They could be Cyrus or Lawrence G. True. Of the 9 children there were 4 boys, 5 girls. Solon's father was Mason True married to Esther Baker Campbell.
