• Notes

  Wiley was born in Holland while Beatrice was visiting her mother. The family lived in Taylor at the time. He had the mumps when Billy was a baby and almost died. He was the best "papaw" a child could have, spending time with us and making us giggle. He walked me to the library, walked David to school and, once in a while, walked us to the ice cream parlor for a treat. I'm unsure of the dates of employment at his various jobs; I think I have them listed in the correct order. The address on Capitol St is now a parking garage.
