Sentimental Sunday: Family Legends
The following tidbit comes from a personal interview conducted with my mother:
Were there any family stories or legends that you can recall?
I never heard anything about that. If I did, I was a young and didn't pay attention.
[Ed.: C'mon! Surely, there was something there about an Indian princess or something.....]
