Dear Children. Last night I went to Farmington to visit my dad and brought home his book, "The Israel Barlow Story." I thought you would be interested to see how you are related...

Israel Barlow married to Elizabeth Haven

Pamela Elizabeth (third child, married to David Wilken Thompson)

Mary Theresa (fifth child who married Anson Bowen Call)

Cleo Afton (fourth child who married Nathan George Clark)

Nathan George (thirteenth child who married Bonnie DeAnn Peterson)

Cristie (first child who married Gerald Blaine Carter)

YOU!

YOUR CHILDREN.

For years I have been invited to reunion gatherings but had little idea as to how I was connected. Then at the last general conference Israel Barlow was used in a story by one of the general authorities and my curiosity led me to asking my dad some questions last night.

As Israel stated to his wife Elizabeth, "our children are our hope and glory in the Lord." I am certain that he is very pleased to be related to you. Almost all phases of the Church growth, the trials and drivings and tribulations were shared by him and his family. The fruition on which is still bearing sweet fruit.

Happy Sunday! My love to you all, mom
