Last week my cousin Jeannette and Geoff visited us. They are from Sorrington in Sussex England.
Jeannette is th granddaughter of Frederick Smith who was the brother of my grandfather
Percy Smith. We had fun going over genealogy while Bill and Geoff had a good visit.
They were staying in LongBeach at the Hyatt so we went there and traveled
around Long Beach to see where grandpa Smith lived.
We went to the Long Beach historical society and found information about him
and his other brother Leopold' s real estate business in 1904.
We had fun with Jan and Geoff and really enjoyed them.
Just wish they lived closer. However they have a
beautiful home in the country with lots of
trees and green grass. It looks just like you would
expect an english home would be like.
Would love to visit some time.
It was a fun 4 days!!!!!
