Round Robin Letter

The reason we call this Blog Post the "New Round Robin Letter" is for this reason. When Grandpa Joseph and Grandma Minnie's kids got spread all over the area it was hard for them to keep in touch with each other. So they started a newsletter called "the Round Robin". This letter contained a letter from each of the children. It was sent to the next one down the line in age. Then that child would take out their past letter , insert a new letter and mail it on. It would take several months for the letter to cycle through the family.The letter were very entertaining and clear full of news. It was fun as a grandchild to read these letters. I know my parents were excited every time they got the "Round Robin".

I would like for us to use this blog as a place to share family events, memories, fun stories of the family etc.

Please send those to me at josephandminnie@gmail.com at I will put the in the Blog!
