Full Circle 24

Ida Norley has gone home.

Ida of Zerkle DL Antiques

Photo Number 485

Ida had a brother by the name of Emet, the photo went to Emets Granddaughter Karen. Iggy was instrumental in locating Karen..thanks Iggy!! Iggy contacted Karen and she shared this info:

What  pleasant surprise!!!!  Ida Norley was my Grandfather Emet Norley’s Sister, as you noted.  My Father was Arthur Norley.  I was born in Bagley in 1948 and have many relatives still living in Clearwater County.   I remember visiting Aunt Ida as a child when she lived in the Minerva area.  I think that her husband Albert Mattson had passed away as I do not remember him.  This is really a coincidence – just yesterday my Mother, who is now 86 years old, was talking about how “Aunt Ida” had raised Emet because their mother was not with the family.

She also included her address and I mailed off the photo!

Hi Connie,

THANK YOU!!!  I received the photo Thursday - what a special family remembrance!!!  I appreciate the service you are providing; and it is fascinating to read your blog on the research you and your team do on the old photos!!

Thanks again...

Karen
