The Setting

Barbara returned home from Girls State and Morris was there to pick her up.  They had a few days to see each other before her family left to go to Michigan to visit Barbara’s mother’s family, the Schwanders in the Grand Rapids area of Michigan and then her father’s family in neighboring Wisconsin.

Barbara will mention the “church” in many of her letters.  The church is the Flemington Baptist Church was an important part of their life, it is where Barbara and Morris met and . Barbara’s father, Fred Junior was the minister in 1948 and 1949.
