My Cousin Nita

Was the oldest daughter of my father's sister, Zera. Her name was short for Juanita (little John in Spanish)

She was a dyke, and dressed the part - complete with black leather clothing. and hair cut like a man. 

She met her lesbian partner, when she was her teacher in High School, in Ft. Madison, Iowa - where she lived all of her life. Her partner lived in the garage of the family house, and after her parents died, she lived in the house, alone. She worked for the Santa Fe Railroad. 

She did not age well, and was feeble in her old age.
