Doris Ann Vance Williamson
November 18, 2025
I am a cousin and my name is Doris Vance Williamson. I am the daughter of James (Jim) Vance. We lived on the holler at the old home place of Ma and Aunt Lina. I now live in Ky across the river from Ironton, Ohio. I want to attend the service tomorrow and introduce myself if I can. I reconnected with her several years back but then due to some health changes I lost contact. My heart hurts that I missed an opportunity to see and talk with her. So sorry for the family .
