Our Grandmother Viola Fern
Faulkner and Jack Mellick's Mother-To-Be With
Her 19th Century Family

It
is easy to pick out Fern. She was pretty, vivacious, peppy,
cutie-pie AND very intelligent! Obviously Grandpa had an
eye for the cute ones. Thank you Grandpa for a great gene mix!
It is never too late to say "thank you" to the ones
you loved. This picture shows Fern, Lester, Stella and John W.
Faulkner. There is that "W" in the middle. Sister
Stella married into money I think.

This fantastic
photo shows the two mothers in the back row. The one on the
left is Fern's maw. Richard states, "She use to live
down the road a mile or two going towards Shenandoah on the
left side on a bit of a rise. One day Grandpa and I
found her on her living room floor. She had had a
stroke. She died that day or next. It was my first
experience".
