Alice Downen Smith, daughter of Oda Ethel Drumright Downen, name sake for her aunt Oda Ethel Drumright. Jane Turnbull Drumright was a sickly child who was born in Illinois.
Her parents moved to the mountians of Northern Arkansas when she was very young. She later married my great-grandfather William Allen Drumright. When I was almost three I can remember my great-grandma Jane holding me on her lap. She was quite a character.
She could tell fortunes and make tables walk. My mother loved her dearly. I was born July 2, 1932, west of West Plains, Missouri. I have many Drumright and Downen relatives still living there. I would love to hear from any Drumright relatives still living in Colorado.
