LOOKING FOR GRANDCHILDREN

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, YEGOR
Parents gone, grandmother in space some
where. I did ask him to have lunch with me
Sunday if they don't leave too early. However
he said he knew a couple of National Guard guys
who live in Mt Juliet, who were in basic training
with him. They got together I believe yesterday.
He is here with his mother at Josh's wedding.
Happy Birthday Sweetheart and have a wonderful
year ahead. I love you dearly. Nana

I am so thankful for my parents who took me to this church every time the doors opened.Oh that kids would be so lucky today. I would say that Edsel is about three, today he is 77. So its been 74 years. I can't get the picture to enlarge, so if you are in pix use magnified glass.

SIX GENERATIONS OF PATTON MEN.
Lots of genealogist have generations traced back
that far but it is unusual to have a picture of that
many. I have just had this put together for Josh
and Melissa Patton, certainly in anticipation of
tearing this one up and adding a seventh generation,
and another little Leonard someday.
My grandson:
Joshua Leonard Patton, August 21, 1980 -
Hugh Leonard Patton, January 25, 1950 -
Leonard Owen Patton, May 4, 1924 - December 8, 2005
Herman Neal Patton, Sept. 2, 1893 - January, 1978
William Wilson Patton, July 2, 1868 - August 17, 1936
Richard H. Patton, 1842 - 1925
Joseph Patton, Sept. 17, 1792 - Nov. 26, 1859
John Patton, Nov. 17, 1768 - Nov, 17, 1845
I am quite disappointed with the how the picture turns out,
but you see the meaning. Picture itself is excellent

HE IS BECOMING A CITIZEN OF THESE USofA
a US citizen on the 17th of September. Will
anyone get to wittness this in California? You
bet, his mother and dad are headed that way.
Yegor will be about three months behind him
as his work is almost complete I understand.
Yegor continues to let his sholder heal and working
a little here as it heals. I pray that God will look
after both of these boys. What fine citizens they
will make.
