Letter from Grandma Weiss – 4/7/78
Dear Cheryl, Enclosed is a map of St. Louis. I was born on Beck St. I don’t know the house number, but my cousin Ora Wolters will be the place for you to get more information. I was baptized in St. John’s Lutheran Church at Morgan Ford Rd. and Chippewa St. I think my parents Henry Wolters and Dorothy Grimm were also married there. My father was baptized in Old Trinity Church at 8th and Soulard. His father had a farm on what is now King’s Highway. My mother lived very close to St. Johns Church. Her father had a blacksmith shop on Morgan Ford Rd. He died when she was 14 years old and my Uncle Henry Grimm inherited the shop. We wen thhere quite often when I was little.
