Grandma's & Grandpa's Letters

Shirley Shelby Purswell found several letters written by Grandma Norris and Grandpa Norris to Great-Grandpa Dunman. The year was 1908. She has scanned these letters and posted them in the "files" section of the Norris Family Yahoo group. They are available to all of us now.

The letters are simply written and are about everyday things. The fact they were written in 1908 and are this year 100 years old is remarkable as is their survival. Though we can't all have these very delicate family treasures in our hands, we can have the benefit of seeing them. I hope you all enjoy them.

Thanks again, Shirley for making them available to us.
