To descendants of Leon S. Collier (1941-2009):
I have information on your GRYDER ancestors
(Gryder was Sadie's maiden surname.) That's
because my aunt married into that GRYDER family.
Sadie's father was James Monroe Gryder (1867-1943)
and her grandfather was Averis Gryder (1812-1898).

Happy to share!
P.S. I used to live in Gadsden, and I worked
at HNJH (lab) in 1970 (but I don't think I know any of you).
