I sent a message but it came up error and refused to post. So I f it did go through and this is a duplicate, please excuse it. Oddia Schrammeck Jones was born Monday, 12 May 1884 in Cascade, Cascade County. She was the third of nine children and a lot of help to her mother with all the little boys who came after her. My father was one of them. She was his only sister and much beloved. I didn't actually meet "Aunt Oddie" until after she had a stroke in her old age and came to live with my parents in Tacoma, WA for a while. By that time I was grown with a family of my own, living on the Oregon Coast. But during the summer, I would bring the children up to visit. Aunt Oddia had long auburn hair, still thick and showing only a few strands of gray hair. I loved to braid it or put it in a French roll for her. Her brothers had all had curly hair and she felt cheated that hers was straight. We had a lot of good coversations together. Even though she'd had a stroke she was still very sharp, an obviously intelligent person. When she was young she played the piano and sang. She used to take her younger brothers, my dad included, to Sunday School at the Methodist Church where she played the organ for services. I have been told that she had kept records of the Schrammeck family but I don't know what happened to them. I hope this meager info has been helpful. If you think of questions about this please let me know. Hope
