Grandma Arnold keeps her records.

Mildred Robbins Arnold did a lot of genealogy research in the 50's and 60's.  She researched her Robbins-Day-Bishop families, and she also worked on the Arnold side.  She saved a lot of photos, which we are so lucky to have, and she took lots of notes.  The notes are scratched on little pieces of paper, on photos, and in notebooks.

 

In this particular entry in her .17 cent Walgreens, Penway Composition Book, she has recorded the births of her husband, Ernest Arnold's, grandfather and grandmother and of his aunts, the Johnson sisters from Morrisonville, Clinton County, New York. Their photo now appears at the top of the Arnold Genealogy Blog.

My great, great grandmother, Lora Johnson Arnold, is in the bottom row in the center of the photo. Also in the bottom row on the left in glasses is Elizabeth Johnson and to Lora's other side, Lora's twin sister, Flora.  Neither Elizabeth nor Flora married, and they lived in rural Morrisonville, New York, all their lives. 

The top row from left to right:  Amanda Johnson Johnson (not a typo, she married a Johnson), Martha Johnson Ayers, and Ida Johnson Ladd.
