Just after Pearl married Jess and moved to the farmstead at West Branch Pearl planted a sprig of Willow.

Mama Sherry didn't know it until after we started doing family tree research, but there was a special significance to this tree planting. 

Way back in Grandma Pearl's childhood in West Virginia & Pennsylvania she had kinsfolk who'd planted a Willow tree just the same. 

Grandma Pearl was transplanting a Fox family tradition.
