She had a wonderful memory for detail in her younger years, and would recount the stories as she heard them growing up, and into adulthood. I wish I had paid more attention then--but what do kids know? I treasure what I can remember of the stories she told me.<br />CherylCheryl Piersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18116526340220274282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8927727476793944291.post-66411566092370193602014-05-01T18:24:58.364-05:002014-05-01T18:24:58.364-05:00I love how much research you done for your books. ...I love how much research you done for your books.

My family migrated from the east to Missouri and Iowa before coming on to Colorado. I do have quite a few family Depression Era stories, though.

I posted it, at the end of the day but didn't have your e-mail. If you will e-mail me at fabkat_edit@yahoo.com I will see that you get your prize! <br /><br />Yes, you really should incorporate your family stories in your writing. It's very cathartic.

LOL I found out through family records that one of my ancestors who came over from Ireland married an Indian woman named "Horse Shoe"--don't know the tribe, etc., but this was back in the 1700's I think. Thanks so much for all your kind words, Sarah!

I would be interested to know what tribe.

I rea...This was a most excellent story. I loved it.<br />I really cannot imagine the emotional torture that Native Americans suffered at the hands of "well intended" Europeans. It seems every culture that exists in the United States has had its time to suffer until acceptance finally comes.
