Plymouth County Hayride Fun Mr. & Mrs. Ray Oaks; Veta Stinton; Clarence Bristow; Myrtle Herman; Phoebe Chamberland; Laura Bristow; Ruth Brown; Ronald Brown; Viola Parker; Grant Brown; Alice Brown; Wesley Brown; Mary Brown; Charlie Brodie; Bertha Ott; George Taylor; Neva Stinton; Emery Lias; and French. ~these are the names printed on the back of the photo...photo contributed by N. Yoder, rural LeMars. Names will be linked to their respective obituaries as the obits are posted. It has been suggested that "French" is perhaps the dog. If you look closely at the far right back corner of the haywagon, it does appear that there is a dog's head peering over the top. Anyone having any obituaries of these people, feel free to email the county co-ordinator. Thanks! |
This site is hosted by Linda Ziemann. I was raised at Seney, Plymouth County, IA. My paternal grandparents and their parents were early pioneers in Elgin Township. Plymouth Co. now has an assistant county coordinator! Please welcome with me, Mary Holub, of LeMars, Iowa. Mary will be a great asset and I appreciate her willingness to help. ~Linda Z. Plymouth county coordinator Email ME your submissions....Thanks!
