I have some (eight) old photos of my mother's half sister's family that belonged to my mother. My cousin was Donna Lee Stanford Lance, Mena, Polk County, Arkansas (1934-1985). My mother, Thelma Sims Parker, came to live with us in Texas in 1980 a few years after my father's death. She had marked these photos to be given to Donna Lee. Unfortunately, Donna Lee became ill and died before we could get them to her. There are no identifications on the pictures, but I know that there is a picture of her mother, Lula and her father, Comanche; also probably brothers Kenneth, Donald and Teddy.

I fondly remember visiting and playing with Donna Lee as I grew up in Polk County.

I have made a connection with another member whose two aunts were married to two of the Stanford brothers; I offered her the pictures and will be sending or emailing them to her. I have found another tree whose owner seems to be named Elder, whom I believe may be Donna Lee's daughter, but am unable to email her, either through Ancestry or private email. I would very much like for Donna's descendants to have copies also. I will scan then and can email them to one person and send the originals to the other person.

If someone would contact me at the email address below, I'll be happy to send them.
