Bette if you do see this, please be aware that you were in the 1930 census with your parents-so that part has been public knowledge for 10 years; I wanted to include you in the family without saying that you were still living & could be found if someone looked. I did include your location from 10-20 years ago as found in Ancestry.
Do hope that you approve of the efforts I have put forth to create a family tree which includes as many as possible.
