Hey, Dalton. � It's been a while since we've emailed.� I've been so busy getting ready for a Wiggins family reunion -- our first one ever! -- that happened last weekend, that I haven't done much with my other branches for a while. � I was just looking at some of the excellent posting you've done on Ancestry.com, and I noticed an entry for my aunt Rena.� I'm sorry to admit that I seem to know more about my "great-greats" than I do about my closer relatives, but I don't think that you have some correct info on her.� She died May 20, 1999, on Mother's Day, near her home in Livingston, Texas.� She was having a cookout for her kids, Stephen, Nancy, and Keith, and their families at her house.� They ran out of hamburger buns, she ran to buy some more, and was struck by another car.� I've never heard her called "Renee," just Rena, but I'll have to ask one of my aunts about her full name.� She was married to Buddy Q. Whitted, and as far as I know, they've never lived anyplace other than Canton, North Carolina, and several towns in Texas. � Thanks for reminding me not to neglect one of my families branches, cousin!� Hope to hear from you soon, � Claudia Wiggins Earhart
