Pauline "Polly" Norris Warren. She is a 91 year old Mother, grandmother, great grandmother and great great grandmother. She has nurtured and loved her family for over 3/4th of a century while sharing a smile and a family story or 2.
Polly entered this world in Spartanburg SC during March of the year 1919. The daughter of William Howard and Hattie Mae Russell Norris. She was welcomed into this world by a brother, Wint Norris, maternal uncle Rob Russell and a maternal grandmother Harriet Lindsey Russell.(Harriet is the same Harriet Lindsey in the previous posted stories. Daughter of Reuben and Sarah Beasley Lindsey)
Polly married Robert Bates Warren. They were blessed with 4 children Norma, Becki,Ronnie and Jerry.
My favorite memory of Grandma Polly is when she was going to take her driver's test. She had been practising and we kept bugging so she let all of us grandkids jump in the back of the car. There must have been about 7 or 8 of us in the backseat. Kids sitting on older kid's laps and the shortest ones standing up. Uncle Jerry was in the front passenger side and Polly backed up the car and then started going forward.The car kept jerking and all of us kids kept laughing. What fun!
We made it about a block and the door swung open. All of us kids had to walk back to Grandma Polly's house. I guess we shouldn't have laughed (it was fun) and it wasn't suppose to jerk (clutch) But what a memory!
