Family reunion 2015
The 3 sisters decided to look up some family history on ancestry.com. We mainly wanted to find out who murdered our grandfather, Charley J. Burton in 1937. We became somewhat obsessed with finding out as much information as we could and even stayed up until 5 AM one morning searching and discussing our findings.
Here is what we we've come up with so far.......
