Description

In the letters that Granny had saved, she had passed on the story of the best times, the hardships and greatest tragedy of her life.  The first letter, June 1914, was a sorrowful one from an old swain written three days before she was to be married to Roy King.  Twenty-five of the letters were from Granny in Frostproof to Roy King in Waresboro, Georgia between March and June 1, 1925.  She wrote to him several times a week until she left Frostproof for Waresboro the first of June.  Only one letter from Roy King to Granny survived (May 12, 1925).  From remarks in her letters it is clear that he wrote to her weekly. Granny Letters is available in eBook format from Amazon for $3.50. Published 2008.
