Robby Dardeau - In many families, Christening gowns are protected treasures made by grandmothers and are expected to be worn by newly added family members during their infant baptism. To the untrained eye, most Christening gowns look all the same, but although most of these dresses are similar in appearance, not all share the same history of how they came to be. The following story illustrates how unique one particular gown really is.
Sirmon - Air Force. December 1941 I was handling my Dad’s crop and job, and Lorraine, and I was preparing forty acres of rice land for our personal crop on the Sirmon homestead four miles southwest of Abbeville on the property now owned by Bob Lowe. The Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor December 7, 1941 changed a lot of things.
