Family Historian
Letitia “Lettie” Roberts (35)
--family Historian
To date,
Lettie Roberts has left the largest collection of genealogy items in the
Roberts family. Although the records
were not formally written or organized in forms or charts, Lettie, has left a
paper trail with numerous facts and clues.
In addition, she has given us a glimpse into the Roberts family; their
relationships, personalities, and their history. Lettie has left words and descriptions of
ancestors and relatives that we were never able to meet, and because of her
recordings, we feel like we know them.
Items Lettie has passed down:
- various handwritten family lists, including dates
- an address book that not only includes addresses, but also family relationships
- interviews:
An Interview by Janie Allen
dated 28 April 1982 (10 pages)
"Oral History
& Genealogy Information” by Michael Roberts & Grant Roberts
- histories:
"The
Isaac Roberts Family in Rock Springs, Wyoming"
"John
R. Roberts Pioneer Miner of Frontier Wyoming"
- numerous newspaper clippings about family members
Thank you Aunt Lettie! (and Thank YOU to everyone that continues to pass down Aunt Lettie's information)
