I am Cynthia (Cindy) Faye Timm Harrison. I was born to Edward Donald (Don) Timm and Odiezell (Odie Z.) Jones Timm in St. Louis, Missouri. Don Timm was 25 and Odie Timm was 18 at the time of my birth. Don Timm drowned in what was described as a slough while on a fishing trip with Odie Timm and Cindy Timm on Saturday May 7, 1960 that was close to the wooden bridge that crossed over from Missouri into Alton or East Alton, Illinois. My mother showed me the pond as she called it, in the distance when I was about 10 years old, but I can never remember if it is Alton or East Alton there. It was not accessible to the public at that time and the bridge has now been replaced with a more modern bridge crossing the river there. Don Timm was the son of Edward George Timm and Martha Wehde Timm of the Tipton, Iowa area. Ed Timm had passed away of cancer in the spring of 1959. They were the parents of Don Timm their oldest child and 5 other children, 4 of whom have since passed away. Odie Jones Timm was the middle child of 3 born to Bessie Mae Worrell Jones and Henry P. Jones - Alma Faye Jones Mills, Odiezell Jones Daly and Larry Wayne Jones. Odie was married a total of 6-9 times depending on sources. I personally know of 6 times.

Martha Timm passed away in June 1989 and is buried in Tipton, Iowa. Henry P Jones passed away in April 1989 and is buried in Philadelphia, Mississippi (listed on http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=97944135&ref=wvr). Bessie Worrell Jones (Springer) Greeley (she married a man who's last name was Springer before signing for Odie to marry Don Timm, but was married to Elvin Greeley and living in Illinois by the time Don Timm passed away about 20 months later) passed away March 23, 1998 and shares a grave with her daughter Odie in Hutchinson, Kansas.

Odie Timm married a man named Wayne Eads from Monroe, Michigan some time between May 7, 1960 and February 1962 and the marriage was ended in divorce after she and I moved to Hutchinson, Kansas in February 1962 and he has since passed away. On December 31, 1962 she married Howard Velt Williams in Cushing, Oklahoma. Howard and Odie Williams had 3 children. My half-siblings. Howard has since passed away.

I married my husband in Hutchinson, Kansas and we have 3 children. Our oldest child is the parent of 3 adult children and grandparent to 1. Our 2nd child is the parent of 1 child as is our 3rd child. Our former son-in-law Tim Snowden, Jr. died as a result of a motorcycle accident in March 2006.

My husband was preceded in death by his parents Donald (Don) Fisher Harrison, Sr. and Catherine (Cathy) Francis De Fonso Harrison, who are divorced. Don Harrison, Sr. and Cathy Harrison had 3 children total. Don Harrison, Sr. remarried after his divorce from Cathy.
