My grandfather on my dad's side had a brother who unfortunately died of kidney issues at the age of 34. He was married to a nice lady named Ola, who I knew and liked as a child. Ola had a sister who married Bill Terry. By the time I came along, Bill Terry had long since retired from baseball, became a car dealership owner, and had moved to Florida. I never met him, but I heard the story often when I was a kid.

The other story concerns Lou Chiozza. His family lived next door to my grandparents on my dad's side. They lived on Meda Street in Memphis. He was a few years older than my dad, but my dad knew Lou Chiozza well. After his baseball days were totally over, he owned a small grocery and liquor store on Poplar in Memphis. I went to that store on several occasions with my dad, and I met Lou Chiozza. I was fascinated by his collection of baseball photos and memorabilia he had, and he put up with me and all my questions. He loved talking about baseball, and my dad and I loved listening!

My mother insisted (due to her research) that we were decedants of Mary Queen of Scots. There is more solid evidence that on my father's side a great,great, etc grandfather named Cudworth was related. The same Cudworth that was friends with Myles Standish in the Plymouth Rock area. Dad told me that if I ever go to Scituate, MS, I will be given the keys to the city and presumably free drinks. They are still waiting for me to show up.
