WELCOME

This blog is currently being read by members of my (Jana Nichols Faulk) immediate family. As such, the photos are mainly of us as well. If you have found your way here and would send me photos, I would love to post extended family and friend photos as well. Please leave a comment on a post letting me know and I will get in touch with you.

Tonya's Graduation

Tonya Christine Thompson is the youngest of all the Thompson cousins.
She is my only girl cousin and I think she is adorable.
Bubbly, pretty and smart - what a package!

I believe this is her graduation from Seminary - not sure which or where or when.
Please feel free to comment with information and I will edit the post with correct information.

Lucy, Tommy Jr. (Champ), and Tonya

Norma Jean Redenbaugh Dent

Norma Jean Redenbaugh Dent

Norma's mother was Ollie Dahlem Redenbaugh, which means that she was Meta "Grandma" Dahlem Nichols' sister.  Norma Jean was Richard and Bob's first cousin and my first cousin once removed.

All the geneology terms get sooooooo confusing.
Anyway - random family member moment.

Norma married Bob Dent and they had six children.  These children are my second cousins.  I will be working on who and where they are soon.  I have been in communication with Vicky Dent who is married to one of Bob and Norma's sons.  Not sure which one yet, but sleuthing will tell.

So, this is a bit of the Nichols side of my tree.
