This is my Great Grandmother, Naomi Rollings, born in 1871, in England, doing what she loved, working in her garden. She passed away in 1962 at age 91. At one time she operated the Company Store for Morris & Co., which owned most of Groveville at one time. Her husband, George, my Great Grandfather was a Machinist and Engineer and operated the Groveville Water Co, for Morris & Co. and one of the organizers of the Groveville Fire Co., I'll post his picture later. Naomi was one of the organizers of the Groveville Fire Company Ladies Auxiliary, and its first president. The Rollings family lived in a large house that was located across from the Groveville School, the property was sold and the house torn down.
