Thanks,Barb...that was very sweet of you. And you are good! Ethel Wanda Preble is my
husbands grandmother...that's how we knew her mother was a Myers! LOL:) His uncle
thinks she and husband Fred may be buried in Oakdale Cemetery, but his family relations
are not so good, so I can't really ask more... I was lucky to have the chance once!
Sent to the historical society for Toph papers that mentioned her, but that was in
connection with her husband, Fredus (Fred) Preble and didn't mention her origins. I
did the same thing with the variations of Minnie and also found nothing. I never thought
about Ethel. I do have access to Ancestry and I'll look into the Ethel Myers possible
connection some more. Almost made the trip to Ripley County (I'm about 4 hours away)
but nixed it when I saw the library's hours (a long trip for such a bit of time and I
can't overnight!). They were very helpful there when I ordered the Toph papers, I
should probably see if they can help me with Minnie as well. You all are very blessed to
have had that Violet Toph in your midst...she sounds like an extraordinary person! Must be
in the air down there...thank you so much! :)
