Starting a little early, I'm going to combine a little Weekend Wemininscing and a Memorial Day tribute starting today. Stay tuned as I build this post spanning 120 years and 5 generations.
My great grandfather, Edward C. Williams, marched down Wyoming Avenue for the first time on Decoration (Memorial) Day in May, 1891. His last parade was on Memorial Day in 1961.
In 2010, the Williams family will continue the tradition at the Forty-Fort Cemetery.
