Mr. or Mrs.
Why didn't you sign your name? I'm not trying to dig up any dirt here, but just
want to put down the straight facts for our May family history, before its too late,
before we're all gone, so the future generations will know. It would have been so
much easier for me in my 50 years of doing our May genealogy, if those before me had just
taken a little time to write things down & preserved them.
I just know Burk May would have wanted info. on his children, grandch. & greatgrandch.
to have been preserved.
When I was corresponding with him many years ago, I made the mistake of not asking about
his descendants, but was only interested in the older generations, but as time went
on, I realized that the younger generations are going to become the older generations in a
very short while.
I really have no choice right now, with no facts etc, but to believe Amanda. After all,
she was nice enough to contact me & answer my questions to the best of her ability.
I tried contacting Joyce, but she wasn't interested enough to want to help. I'm
also trying to get help from the Gill children too, but no help there either. As I said,
Burk wouldn't like it, if he knew. He was such a nice man. His first wife crocheted
my mother who was a May, a large tablecloth back in the 1930's which I still have.
Hoping I hear from you again.
Your cousin
