I was born in 1932 in Ackerman, MS to James Baker "Jim" Collier and Willie Gladney Keller Collier. He, a native of Panola County, MS and she a native of, Chicot Country, Arkansas. Soon after WWII we moved to Meridian, MS where I graduated from Meridian High School. My husband and daughter and I moved to Jackson, MS in 1968 and we still reside there; our daughter lives in Plano, TX.
I came to FAG much too late to do much stomping around cemeteries but am enjoying do it on line through Find A Grave. My passion is finding memorials for people I may have known and connecting the memorials of families, even some couples who were not connected. My proudest connections are a family of 8 and a family of 13.
