History
& Stories from Erma Derosear
Erma is well known as one of Lee County's best
historians. She was born and raised at Primrose during the Depression years.
Her family were story tellers. She remembers her beloved Grandmother and her
stories of the past. After raising her two sons and the death of her husband,
Harley, Erma needed something to keep her mind busy. Luckily for us, she
chose the history of Lee Co. and Lee Co. genealogy.
