Our ancestor in the Friend Magazine
I was looking through the August 2009 Friend Magazine and there's a cute little story about an Irish girl named Mary Jane McCleave on page 36. That name is very familiar to me, she's the 3rd wife of Priddy Meeks. They are my 4th great grandparents. I have a copy of his journal and based on the information from the magazine article and the journal, I'm pretty sure the article called Ribbons for Shoes is about her. I asked my dad about the dates and stuff and he agreed. What an amazing thing, to see an article about an ancestor in a magazine- totally random. Check it out if you can, it's a sweet little story. The art work is nice too, they gave her dark hair, which I love! You can find it at friend.lds.org. Hope you enjoy it too!
