Call me Margaret Jane!


My mother had two close friends in Charleston mo:  Glenda Margaret Brock and Frances Howard Hill!  When I was born, the sixth girl, she wanted to name me after Glenda so I got her second name which everyone ignored after the naming!  All but Frances Hill who Always called me "Margaret Jane" after her beloved friend!

And that is part of the reason that is was so special when my sister, Julia Warren, gave me the Fostoria she had bought from Frances when Frances was selling some of her dishes!  I love remembering all of the past world of Frances and Glenda and Charleston and sisters who give and share!

Yes, I am proud to be Margaret Jane again and will remember, thanks to Julia Edith, every time I raise a glass of stemware!   Will someone, anyone, just infrequently, call me Margaret Jane just to help me remember where "I " came from?
