June Cordray was the oldest of two children born to Thurman Grover Cordray and Mamie Ruth Pasco. She was a twin, but the other did not survive childbirth.

She married Donald Thomas Swiney on 30 January 1916, and they farmed north of Shelbyville, Illinois, until he retired.

They had four children, Ronald Dean Swiney, Gary Roger Swiney, Patricia Sue Swiney, and Debra June Swiney.

June was an outstanding cook, and she was a pretty good artist, having taken classes in painting. She had a great sense of humor, and usually wanted to eat her dessert first!

When grandchildren were around, she always wanted to get “a bite”!
