Never met Greta but my twin Brother Russell and I Rodger were Born in Melbourne also in the First Hospital on East River Drive on June 1936 which began in 1934. As most who were Born in Melbourne must have been at Home in their Parents Home as Most also in Brevard County, otherwise either Daytona, Orlando, or Vero Beach. God Bless for Greta Story. Amen!
