~ Family history “Aunt Florence Aull McCormick you should remember. She married Frank, who was a coal miner, living in Stonington, which is not too far from Decatur. They had 9 children, all living except one. Their oldest daughter lives in Morrisonville and is a widow. Their twin sons became Priests--one left the Priesthood many years ago and lives in Calif. The other Priest is in Tenn. (May be Penn. It has faded--v.h.), not very well, as he has Cancer and heart problems. 3 daughters live in Dacatur 1 in Wis. and a son in Arizona. After the death of U. Frank, A. Florence moved to Dacatur, where she died from a heart attack in 1957 in her 70’s.
