               Lapped Over Toes Letter




               [Note: From June Poulsen’s bible. Only page 5 of the letter was kept. This is in regards to the
               fact that David Backman has an unusual (genetic?) quirk whereby his little toe overlaps the
               toe next to it!]






                                                             5.





               Roswell Charles Backman was born on January 4, 1893 in Lunenburg Nova

               Scotia. He was the son of Charles and Clara (Smeltzer) Backman. It was a

               German Community. He died on December 12, 1937. Elizabeth May Totten was


               born on October 21, 1892 in Londonderry Nova Scotia. She was the daughter of

               Thomas and Sophia (MacLean) Totten. The Tottens were from Londonderry

               North Ireland. The MacLeans were Scotch.




               As far as I know my father didn’t have toes that lapped over – sorry  Chris.
