Regarding Wakeman Fitzgerald, did you mean to say that Wakeman (not William) married America Wilson and they had 11 children: unnamed child, Marybelle, Itha, Annie, Olsa, Edna, Rovilla, John, Carl, Clara and Francis? Marybelle is my grandmother and her father was Wakeman. I am Dale and Hazel's youngest child (Kim) and I very much enjoy your blog. I recently shared with my children (Ashley and Joey Hill) your photos of Iva Jewel Colclasure. We don't remember having seen those two photos before and love having them now. Iva was very beautiful. Thanks for your genealogy research and records. It's appreciated and brings back great memories of mom happily researching. Thanks again.
Yes, I did, I'll fix it now. I think we've met a time or two. Your mom was very helpful with genealogy. I am Trixie's daughter. We only have about 3 photos of Iva. Glad you like the blog. Keep fact checking!!
