Orrie Barker

Aunt "Orrie" was my mother's loved aunt. She was also my mother's school teacher. In high school my mother lived with Uncle Warren and Aunt Ora Shinebarger in Mt Sterling. Later the Shinnebargers lived in a house in Camp Point near the railroad tracks. The house is now gone. She and Warren had no children but my mother Lois Lipcaman was treated like her daugter. I have video of a large family gathering in the Shinnebarger home taken in September 1961. I have several photos, her obituary, and other documents.
