The Monsoon has arrived
Hooray, the monsoon season has finally arrived. It has been horribly, record-breakingly, and even sadly, deathly hot here this summer.
Now, if it would only rain! We got a dust storm yesterday, and it only rained enough to allow the dust to stick to my car.

Jacobson-Funston
More cousins. I came across an obituary for Louise V. Funston who was the wife of Walter F. Funston. Walter was the son of John H. Funston who was the brother of my great-grandmother, Anna May Funston Carman.
Thankfully, it was not a Philadelphia obituary in which you are lucky if it lists a spouse. The obituary was from the Times-Leader in Wilkes-Barre and listed not only her spouse and children, but also her birth date and place and her parents names. So, I was able to find her in the 1900-1920 censuses with her parents and siblings.
