• Notes

  Married: "Sarah Martha was always my favorite so I know a little more about her. S.M. married Jack Coleman, and as the war [WW II] was on, he went into [the] service as soon as he was out of college. They lived in several places and the last was Dayton, Ohio. He retired as a General. "Then they went to Calif. where he taught in Fullerton College. I can never think of that name. He, after retiring from the college, then went to Russia, China and some European countries picking out exchange students for this college. He spent two to three years after he retired from the college. "Sarah had her first cancer operation when she was about 27 years old [circa 1953], just after her two daughters were born. From then on it seemed that every little while it would be another operation. I didn't see how she could hardly get along with so many parts gone. Ray and I went to see them in 1982. Jack was so wonderful to S.M. and they seemed so happy. I could tell you more but its not important! I'll get back as what I started. They had two daughters, Linda and Deborah (Debbie). "Jack stops to see us when he comes to Ks. He still has farmland here - Fred's farm [his father-in-law's farm]." - Iva (Bell) RUSSELL [2]
