Hello,
I have been trying to find out more about a pair of earrings my Great Aunt Carolyn gave me many years ago, if she were alive she would be 105 years old!
When she gave me the earrings she told me they had belonged to her mother's sister, and showed me a note written by "Aunt Gen, Mother's Sister."
The note reads:
"These ear drops belonged to mother's sister, Aunt Christina, who would be over a hundred years old."
I was very close to my Great Aunt Carolyn and have kept these ear drops in the box in my jewelry box, I have never worn them.
Thank you,
Johnna Gresham
