Marriage Notes:
George and Dorothy lived in Omaha Nebraska, and Iowa. They moved to Pacific Junction, Iowa or should say a very small farm Community named Folsom, Pacific Junction mail Route. They farmed in this area from I923 till 1936, when George and Dorothy moved their family to Council Bluffs Iowa, where some family members live today.
Our parents were very kind and loving people. No matter who stopped by they were always welcome, Should it be at meal time our Mother could stretch that meal to no end, just put on more plates and fit them in. As Dad would say count heads in a bed on Saturday night. They never knew how many friends we had asked to stay over night. Our parents must have had PATIENCE OF SAINTS to put up with our antics, fussing and fights. I will tell you one thing the old strap was close at hand, NOT MUCH NONSENSE WOULD THEY STAND. As I look back now, can understand why. TEN KIDS MY - oh - MY.
