My name is June Marie Bishop Owens and I am the granddaughter of June Lavon Gillespie Way‚ Bishop who is now deceased since March 2012….. I have found the stepdaughters of June’s First husband and they are helping me to find my great aunts and any help would be greatly appreciated. Contact me, thank you.
