Finding the Rivers

“Climbing the Hills and Finding the Rivers” is a manuscript by Marji Smock Stewart and her husband William Stewart. The title phrases are touchstones of life for them, she said; his in the first part and hers in the second.

Finding the rivers came from Marji’s father – always his advice for when you’re in a new place. Rivers, especially the Ohio, played an important part in both Marji and Bill’s lives. This is the story of their lives, written for their family, serialized and shared here by me. I sometimes altered the arrangement of the content and edited for length, but the words are theirs.

The family photos are also theirs, but I added them and some others to these posts.
