Maynard and Robinson Reunion 1948



Let us randomly learn more about some family members. Here we have Cola Nelson Maynard.


For those following me will recall my sharing that my 7th grade Social Studies teacher proclaim that fifty-years after our demise no one will remember us or at best little of any significance. I realized that his comment was made before today’s technological development. But still, today is Cola’s birthday. July 3. He would be 134.
