I've wanted to write this post ever since I found this picture above in my Great Grandmother, Florence Opel (Mark) Jameson's picture collection. On the back of the picture, Grace clearly labeled all of the people in the picture. It appears that this picture was in a Christmas card or something from the mid 1960's sent to my great grandparents. It also appears by the cuts on the sides of the picture (young Michael only has his legs left today), that my Great Grandmother had this picture in a frame at one time.
Never the less, it appears that Grace and her sister Karis were held as pretty special cousins within the Jameson family. If you look at the side pictures of the blog, there are two difference picture that content Grace and Karis as young girls. The interesting thing about these two old pictures are that they are from two different sides of the Jameson family. The picture that contents Carl Woodward Jameson and his family and part of Charles William Jameson's family comes from my side of the family. The picture which is only of Grace and Karis came from Joy Rayle which came down from her grandfather, Frederick Bertram Jameson's side of the family. Grace and Karis are the only cousins in which I have pictures such as this.
What helped help me with putting this post together, were these obituaries. A few months about, I found that the Monroe County Historic Society collected and listed obituaries from their local area http://www.co.monroe.mi.us/egov/searchobituaries.aspx. Interestingly in Grace's obituary it states that towards the end of her live, she volunteered doing exactly that. The only obituary that the Society could not find from the Newcomer family was that of Patricia Newcomer. I hope you enjoy this blog, as I highly enjoy putting together blogs such as this (putting faces to the information and updating information passed down to me).
