C. W. Obit 1928

Submitted by: Dianne Brown (from Dianne): My grandmother was Cora E. Roberts Venard. Her parents were Thomas Roberts & Frances S. Jones Roberts. While growing up, my grandmother (Cora) was very close to Clarke Foy -- I have some cards and letters he sent to her, but they don't have photos on them like the ones I'm sending you. Cora was born in Fountain Green, Hancock Co., IL. Frances Jones Roberts sister is Mary G. Jones who married Charles Wesley Foy -- they are the parents of Clark, Walter, and Ralph Foy. (Still with me? !!!) Frances Jones Roberts parents were Elizabeth Williams & Francis Simeon Jones. Elizabeth Williams had a sister named Matilda F. Williams who married Daniel Foy. So, as you see, I'm connected to several Foys! What caught my eye was seeing the Foy reunion photo that was mentioned in the email yesterday which is why I asked you to help me contact the person it came from. If I can locate some Foys who are direct descendents, I have some other things that I'd like to send them if they are interested -- a graduation announcement for Ralph Foy, and the letters I have from Clarke Foy to my grandmother.
