Sisters Are Reunited after 66 Years of Family Searching

A visiting teaching lesson on family history and a determined visiting teaching partner helped two sisters reunite after 66 years of separation. Dixie Lee Trotter Minson was 10 years old when her stepfather and the father of her siblings, whose last name was Wright, walked out on the family. In January 1947 her mother, in desperation, took her and her five siblings to her in-laws’ home and asked for help.

The grandparents put the six children up for adoption.
