LUCAS EVENTS REPORTED - November 1955:  Much of my family's history revolves around the coal mining town of Lucas, in Lucas County, Iowa.  This 1955 note reflects the passing of Cyril Chatt Gwinn, known simply as Chat, after a long bought with heart trouble.  He was 82.  Chat was my Great Grandfather's brother.
Also of note in the same article is the travels of my 2nd cousin, Bruce Taylor.  Bruce's Grandmother, Mrs. Ambrose Taylor, was my Grandfather Johnny Gwinn's sister, Maud.
