Descendents of Charles, Leslie, and Gilbert Dobbs gathered in Garland, Texas this weekend. Those represented are Rosemary Dobbs Perticari, the great-granddaughter of Charles, Juanita Dobbs Williams and Joann Dobbs Traylor, granddaughter's of Leslie, and Frances Eleanor Dobbs Marler, granddaughter of Gilbert.
This is a once in a lifetime meeting for us and a chance to share family artifacts that have survived through the generations.
Together, we have pieced together many family stories and have added more names to the family tree. We have identified and labeled many more pictures of our ancestors so that they can be identified by our descendents.
Mostly, we have enjoyed learning about the family characters and their idiosyncracies, including ours which are remarkabley alike.
I will be posting the new information that I have gathered when I return home in a few weeks.
