A letter dated September 26, 1980 was written to Mr. Zale Carpenter of Falmouth, Michigan from Shirley Ann (Carpenter) Flescher of Gladstone, Oregon: She wrote, " I'm writing you in hope you may be some of my family. My parents left Michigan in 1928. My father was Lee Frank Carpenter. I was three years old when he passed away. I didn't know much about his family. I'm working on a family tree in hopes I can find some of the family. My family had some brothers and sisters, and I have a picture and on it is the name of Zael and Glen and Aaron and Ben and Agness and Lulu. If you know any of them, will you please let me know. And if you are part of the family, will you please send me some information on your family. I hope to hear from you soon."
In November 2000 Elma Carpenter found on the Internet six individuals with the last name of Flescher in the State of Oregon. She wrote letters to all six, enclosing a post card for them to return if they knew Shirley Ann Carpenter Flescher. James Flescher responded stating that Shirley was his sister-in-law and gave Elma her address and telephone number.
Elma and Shirley corresponded and Shirley sent much information in January 2001 about her siblings, their spouses and her children, nieces and nephews.
