Cousin Mentioned In Vada's Diary

"Hello, Linda! I stumbled upon your website and was delighted to find a relative! On 14 March 1938 in Vada Paris' diary, Vada wrote how she, "Went to a party at Mrs. Shirey's." Mrs. Shirey was Maisie Arnett Shirey who was a faculty member at Northwestern Teacher's College. She taught Rural Education. I believe she may have been Principal at one time. Maisie was my Grandmother Gladys Arnett Day's cousin; Maisie's father Willis Arnett and Gladys' father Murrey Arnett were brothers. I guess that would make her my 1st-cousin twice removed.

Maisie's daughter, Faith Ann was a high school senior in 1938. I found her marriage announcement on your GREAT site! Thanks for all your work. It is greatly appreciated.' -- Mary Wickre - EMAIL: dakotagensearch@gmail.com
