Dorothy Gast lives in Romulus, Alabama on the Graham family farm. She taught in Tuscaloosa County Schools for nearly 30 years.
She has a "Mine, yours, and Ours" family. She has volunteered in numerous organizations after her husband's eight year struggle with Alzheimers' ended.
She helped organize a volunteer fire department after she was 60 and served as board secretary and nationally certified firefighter after extensive training.
Her attempts to get the community reading failed, but she contributed books to the new Sipsey Valley high school from the library in her home friends helped her establish.
She is known locally by the silhouettes she cuts free hand of children. She began to write nostalgia stories after a grandson asked her to write down the stories often told at family events.
Thank you for this…I’m looking for info on Mary Ann Graham b.1802 married Samuel Jacob(Doak) Lamb on March 23, 1820 in Madison(possibly county)Alabama. They had children in Clarke Co. Alabama one of which is my great-great-great grandmother Nancy M.(Lamb)Clay. How would one go about finding out if she is of Indian blood, Cherokee or Choctaw? Any help would be appreciated very much!
I don’t know why I just found this question after so long a time. The records I have indicated that these were separate Graham family since our records go back to Wayne County, MO.
