Found a cousin

I was doing a little internet search for information about a cousin in Arkansas who is also related to a friend here in Fort Collins, trying to see how this friend and my husband are related when I stumbled upon the writings of yet another distant cousin named Lee Cowan. She now lives in Fox, Arkansas, with her husband Mike where she has an art studio and Mike grows grapes and makes wine. A few years back Lee worked as a psychotherapist in Little Rock and I think that's when she began writing. The first story I read is at http://www.stonecountyart.com/scn/scnpunishment.htm and that's what got me interested in her life and work. But my favorite story is about her Aunt Flora Turner who is a woman I've heard about from my father-in-law, Doyle Russell. Flora and her husband, Champ, operated a store at Turner Bend and Doyle talked about them several times to me. This story is at
