Notes

Note N3As far as I know my Grandpa Polly (Olva Scot) was where we started in the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (RLDS) Church. The story as told to me was the my Dad's brother Virgil was very ill. The RLDS missionaries were in the area & met with the family. They placed olive oil on his head and prayed for Virgil and a voice spoke to them telling them to make alfalfa tea for him. They did and Virgil recovered. Grandma & Grandpa, Verda, Virgil, and Leola all became members My Dad & Mom were baptized in the 1920's maybe you have the date and I was blessed at the same time. -Note from Gail Polly Wittmeyer to David Joe Polly
