My mother was Florence Dace and her cousin Mary Hamby was raised by her parents for a time. Mary married Lester Dill of the Meramac Caverns . We called her Aunt Mary even though she was not really our aunt but a cousin. I knew her well and even spent some time at her house outside of Stanton, Missouri. She was born in 1900 but I don't remember her actual birthday. Her grandson Lester Truilli runs Meramec Caverns as Aunt Mary has been gone for some time. If you care to contact me please email at
