[AGL] Radio show

[michele mason]

What fine bloodlines you have my dear! I do wish my grtgrn pa hadn't 
changed his name. He was French and no one in Litton Springs could 
pronounce it—that's the story. He jumped ship in the Gulf, (Maxmillion 
sp?) and later became a drover on the Chisholm(sp?) Trail, saved the 
money and became a gentleman farmer. Did well. Would be great to know 
who he really was and who I am.
You're a fortunate lass.  mm
