Wyoming Postscripts 
Hello, I am a Writer exploring my Family History in Glenrock WY. I grew up with the Tales of My Great Grandfather, William Lane Fenex Jr. leaving his home in Dallas County MO to join his older Brother, John C. Fenex as a real Wild West Cowboy and Pioneer. John had settled in Deer Creek Station and soon thereafter his younger Brother Billy joined him in this Morman Station. I know my Fenex Family built a fine, Brick House on 4th street. I am so excited at the possibility of speaking to any residents that may have known my Family, or that can point me in the right direction for my research. I am Proud to be a Fenex and look forward to all the Tales and adventures in Glenrock and Ft. Fetterman that I can include in my book!
Respectfully Yours,
Donnine Susan Kneller~
