Hi Jake,

It appears I can't send you a private message until I have at least 3 posts on the site.  This would be number 2.   Almost there.  :)

Yesterday, August 14th was my Grandfather's birthday (Edward J Dowling).  I was thinking about him and tried searching his name on the internet to no avail.  On a whim, I tried his wife's name (my Grandmother, Cora M Dowling) and I was brought to your post.  Funny how that worked out.

Cora used to tell me about writing to her relatives in England and I remember the name Dolly.  I may even be able to find some of her letters, as I have a box of my Grandmother's things.

While I work on the third post, let me know what you'd like to know about Cora.  I'd love to know more about her mother Margaret, who is my mother's namesake.

Cora Pepin Dowling is my Grandmother.  She was a wonderful, vibrant, funny woman who always made me smile.  I miss her so much.  I also have memories of Cora's mother, my Great Grandmother, Margaret Pepin.  I remember her British accent and her smile.
