Family Friday: Grenfell/Weisman

Bernice Evangeline Grenfell Currey, the mother who raised me, was the middle child between two boys. Her older brother Gilbert Wilfred Grenfell (1901-1928) married Florence Kristine Weisman (1900-1985) on October 25, 1924 in Deadwood, South Dakota. The couple had two children before Gilbert's death which occurred when an eroded stream bank next to the field he was plowing collapsed, causing the tractor to roll over, crushing him.
