[there's more but it's mostly references.]
All Siglins in America are descended from one Johannes Siglin. Paul Filean
shared, he had come across the book "Pennsylvania German Immigrants, 1709-1786."
Johannes Siglin either left Europe or arrived in America September 17th, 1753,
aboard the Richard and Mary . He was the landlord of the Stag Inn in Northampton
County, PA. He came from the region of Wuerttember which from medieval times a
South German duchy, later a kingdom, and since 1871 part of the German Empire,
is about one-sixth the size of Pennsylvania, and lies in the heart of South
Germany, bordering Baden, Bavaria, and Switzerland. Like other parts of Souther
Germany Wurttemberg suffered untold hardships during the Thirty Years' War, and
during the later seventeenth-century struggles for empire between France and
Austria. The largest group of immigrants left in the years 1749-1754. Johannes
was at the tale-end of this. The book says the reasons for leaving are: (1) a
series of crop failures in the vineyards along with severe damage done what
crops there were, by wild game, (2) the revocation of former grazing and
wood-gathering rights in the ducal forests, with !
severe penalties for trespassing, (3) the oppressive and annoying compulsory
service to the overlords, a hangover from medieval feudalism, and (4) the
mounting taxes, which rested on the propertied classes alone, with the result
that many sold their lands to emigrate.
Also, from the intro to the book: "And, most interesting of all is the versatile
Johannes Siglin of Neckartenzlingen - "Butcher, Landlord of the Stag Inn, Judge,
Senator, and Farmer." Before he left Wuerttember he was probably landed since
the Siglin name can be traced back to the 1300s (according to a surname website)
as being well off and involved in the emerging medieval community.

and Peter Schupp. His son, Johan Frederick, his widow, Rachel, and Philip Singer
were administrators. Records -Easton, PA. courthouse. No stone is to be seen for
Rachel.
AS FURTHER NOTE: Eleanor Siglin Filean's original notes seem to insist that she
saw the grave at Brodheadsville. This would have been on a 1964 trip. However
there is a printed record of graves at Gilbert which include in Row 18 and about
space 8 (all probably counted from the SW corner) a Henry Siglin Dec 23 1747 -
May 13 1810. Hand written in by someone other than Eleanor it says "husband of
Rachel". Eleanor visited both cemeteries in 1964 so the notes could be confused.
m (Unknown), Rachel (Regina) After 25 Dec 1772.
b. Before 1755 - Census records
d. After 19 Nov 1825 as she communed at Hamilton Sq. Ref. Ch. on that day.
The 1800 census for Northampton county indicated there may have been one more

Chestnuthill twp. census lists "Widow" Siglin (over age 45) with children
f-16-26 (Christina) and m-16-26 (Jesse).

Notes for FREDERICK SIGLIN:
Four children listed in Hamilton twp. Northampton Co., census of 1810. Only
three listed here. 1820 census for Chestnuthill twp. Did not list Henry but
listed one more female less than 10. Possible error?
Note: Northampton Co. Census 1810 lists the following for the
Frederick Siglin family:
1 Male 26-45 (Frederick himself)
1 female 26-45 (Elizabeth Singer Siglin - 1st wife)
1 male 10-16 (Philip)
2 males under 10 (Heinrich and another son ?)
1 female under 10 (Susan)
Also Beer's History of Monroe Co. lists a daughter Dorothea who m. Abraham
Shafer. Is she another child or was listing of 2 males incorrect and it should
have been 2 females? We only have the names of three of the four. (Paul C.
Filean, 10/2001).

Johan "George" Sieglin's real estate was sold to his brother, Johan Seiglin, in
court reports. At the time the estate was settled, after 1828, there were seven
living children, the youngest was an infant under 2 years of age.
In 1830 five of the seven living children were minors. Their uncle, Johan
"Frederick" Sieglin, who must have not yet moved to Luzerne Co., was
administrator for the Chestnuthill estate. In Aug. 1830, Geo. Weiss, guardian,
was replaced by Joseph Drach. (George Weiss then deceased.) The five under 14
years were named to wit: Sarah, Mary, George, Dolly and Elizabeth.

Notes for LEVI LEE DESMOND SIGLIN:
Recollections of Frederick Stuart Siglin (son of Levi & Mary jane Watts)
at told to his grandaughter Betty Joan Welsh Cowell:
Frederick was born in the Hawkeye area of Windsor.Twp, Fayette.Co.IA, and raised
in the log cabin his father Levi had built when they moved from Clayton.Co in
the early 1870's. It was all prairie (wet/tall grass) at that time. The cabin
had a huge fireplace complete with a huge cast iron kettle and a spit. The floor
was dirt. There were several windows, but the glass must have been opaque as it
let light in, but one could only see shapes through it. Frederick slept in the
loft. He could remember how good it smelled as they hung onions and circles of
apples from the inside beams. Indians used to stop and his mother would feed
them if she could or would give them dried beans, dried corn or squash.
Frederick remembered how terrible the Indians smelled and he always had to go to
the loft if they came inside, but he could still smell them up there. Levi had a
root cellar and Frederick remembered hiding in it when a cyclone went through
there. He trapped prairie chickens and other small game. At times they watched
their garden plot 24 hours a day to keep the animals away until it could be
harvested. His mother used juice from berries for paint pigment, painting
pictures on pieces of smoothed off wood. She was constantly knitting whenever she
found the chance to sit. Candles were used only for necessity and the hearth
fire was their light. Levi and Jennie moved to Marathon.IA in 1892 for the
remainder of their lives.
Recollections by Ora Gale Siglin Peterson: Levi Siglin, our grandpa on out
father's side, was a godly man. If ever any person is with God, I believe he is.
He used to set by the window and read his Bible in the early morning hours. I
can still hear him whispering the words as he read. The birds sang in a bush
outside his window, but after he died they never came back. He also had a round
bed of pansies of all colors which he called his "Glory Bed". It also died. It
died, as God blessed him."

Notes for JAMES MATHIAS ZBORNIK:
...Bohemian's from Southern Bohemia came to Johnson and Linn counties because a
revolution in their home country failed. Bohemians (Czechs) came to Winneshiek
county under the leadership of Joseph Spielman. He built a sawmill on the Turkey
River. The town of Spillville grew as a typical Bohemian village. Many people of
these areas carry Bohemian names.
...By the time of the Civil War 30,000 Germans lived in Iowa --- the largest of
all groups. Germans settled in Clayton Co., Iowa in early days. The town of
Guttenberg was named for the printer, Johann Gutenberg. (In the records two t's
were written in error and thus the name.) By 1890 the German population in Iowa
was at 127,000. By 1920 half of Iowa's farmers were of German extraction.
Farming led other occupations although many were skilled tradesmen.
...1860 Census: James Mathias Zbornik, 19 yrs, single, was living in the hotel
at Decorah, Winneshiek Co, Iowa, and working as a printer. He had just by stage
coach, from working for a failed paper in Clayton Co, traveling without
means/funds, in the middle of a cold winter, under great hardship.
...1870 Census: Farming in Dover Twp, Fayette Co, Iowa, near Eldarado village,
400 real estate, 400 property taxed, 29y, b. Bohemia; wife Anne, 23 y, b. PA;
son Jessie, 3y, b. Iowa; son Francis, 2y, b. Iowa.
...Living in the next dwelling was the familiy of Charles Learn, farmer, 1500
real estate, 500 property, 60y, b. PA; wife Elizabeth, 50y, b. PA; dau
Elizabeth, 16y, b. PA; son? Charles was the brother of James' mother, and likely
started James farming on his own.
...Living in the vicinity of Eldorado is Josehp Learn, 87y, b. Penn, farming,
2000 real estate, 600 property; wife Elizabeth, 77y, b. Penn, son? Leo?, 55y, b.

OBITUARY for James Mathias Zbornik, reported in the Sumner, Iowa Gazette---James
Mathias Zbornik was born January 10, 1841, in the village of Dar (Zdar, Chulupy)
in Bohemia and died at his home in Sumner, Iowa, on May 30, 1910, at the age of
69 years, 4 months, 29 days. When thirteen years of age he came with his parents
to America. They stopped first at Cleveland, Ohio, but soon proceeded to
Dubuque, Iowa, where Mathias served an apprenticeship of five years at the
printer's trade. He became very proficient and this with his reliability caused
him to be trusted with much of the job work. From Dubuque he went to Decorah
where he spent two years in the Republic Office. Failing health drove him to the
farm. He worked by the month five years for one man. January 21, 1866, he was
married to Maragret Ann Siglin. They lived in Clayton county, from there he
bought a farm east of West Union, but soon sold that farm and moved to Bethel
Township where they farmed until 1901, when they bought just west of Fayette.
They lived there seven years. Several of their children having however moved to
Sumner, Iowa, the couple joined them there two years ago (1908). They resided in
Sumner until Mathias's death which was the final result of a kick from a horse
received last fall (1909). Eleven children were born to them, three of which
died in infancy. Besides his wife, Mathias leaves eight children. Mrs. B.
Forsman, B. Zbornik, Mrs. B. Reimer, John Zbornik, Mrs. B. Moser, all of Sumner;
Fred Zbornik, Worthington, Minn., Francis Zbornik, Fredericksburg, Jesse Zbornik
of Fayette, one sister Mrs. Kate Kipp of Ossian, and two brothers, John and Joe
Zbornik of Ft. Atkinson, all of whom were present at the funeral. The deceased
was a faithful, Christian man, a dear husband and a loving father and leaves
many friends to mourn his loss. The funeral was held Thursday morning, June 2,
1910, at 10 PM at the Catholic church conducted by Rev. Father Crane of
Independence and the interment was made in the Catholic Cemetery (Mt. Calvary
Cemetery, Sumner, Bremer Co, Iowa. He is gone but not forgotten.

Notes for HENRY WILLIAM SIGLIN:
Regarding homesteading in Oklahoma from a 1982 Letter of Mary Alsa nee Snyder
Coy, second wife of Lewis Fletcher Siglin (son of
Henry Wm):
All lands were taken from the Indians as they were forcibly removed to
reservations or to military jails and their lands thrown open to settlement for
the whites. Indian reservation were on the poorest land around. The Red Moon
Reservation for the Cheyenne-Arapaho tribes was at Hammon.OK, 20mi S of
Elk.City.OK It was a poor and ill administered reservation. My family, the
Snyder's, lived 5m N of Elk City on the road to Hammon. The early tribe would all
load up and come to Elk City. Old emaciated men in long braids and old woman who
were as emaciated, all the younger men and women, all the kids, all the horses
and dogs. The entire tribe were in one or two rickety covered wagons. They all
passed out doorstep. Once they turned into our place and an old man came to the
door. My father, grandfather and two brothers were in town working...just my
mother, four younger sisters and me were there alone....scared to death. The
Indians just wanted to water their poor old horses at the water tank. Mama, of
course, gave her permission. They were so pitiful, beaten down, poor and half
starved. They always encamped on a flat block of land north of the Elk City
laundry and stayed awhile, dancing at the county fairs, etc.
After the Land Rush of 1899, there were lands in western OK which were not
taken. In 1900, the government opened western OK as 'Oklahoma Territory.'
Eastern OK was known as 'Indian Territory.' One had to apply to a district
officer for 160a of land, promising to live on it and work it for 3 yrs they
were given a temporary deed. After 3yrs, a homesteader could report to the
district officer and apply for a permanent deed. Henry Wm Siglin did just that,
with his permanent deed being signed by Teddy Roosevelt. The father often left
the wife and children on the farm while he came to town to find work. Henry Wm
Siglin's farm was 7mi W of Elk City in a very dry, sandy location. None of
Henry's kin thought it would ever amount to much. When Henry had difficulty
making a go of it, he came back to Elk City to live the remainder of his life.
Henry's farm was in the middle of one of the early, richest oil/gas producing
areas that went into production after he sold the land.

Notes for FREDERICK STUART SIGLIN:
Recollections of Frederick Stuart Siglin (son of Levi & Mary Jane Watts)
as told to his granddaughter Betty Joan Welsh
Cowell, 1982: Frederick was born in the Hawkeye area of Windsor.Twp,
Fayette.Co.IA, and raised in the log cabin his father Levi had built when they
moved from Clayton.Co in the early 1870's. It was all prairie (wet/tall grass)
at that time. The cabin had a huge fireplace complete with a huge cast iron
kettle and a spit. The floor was dirt. There were several windows, but the glass
must have been opaque as it let light in, but one could only see shapes through
it. Frederick slept in the loft. He could remember how good it smelled as they
hung onions and circles of apples from the inside beams. Indians used to stop
and his mother would feed them if she could or would give them dried beans,
dried corn or squash. Frederick remembered how terrible the Indians smelled and
he always had to go to the loft if they came inside, but he could still smell
them up there. Levi had a root cellar and Frederick remembered hiding in it when
a cyclone went through there. He trapped prairie chickens and other small game.
At times they watched their garden plot 24 hours a day to keep the animals away
until it could be harvested. His mother used juice from berries for paint
pigment, painting pictures s on pieces of smoothed off wood. She was constantly
knitting whenever she found the chance to sit. Candles were used only for
necessity and the hearth fire was their light. Levi and Jennie moved to
Marathon.IA in 1892 for the remainder of their lives.
Frederick met Maude, his wife, at a social function when she was visiting her
sister. Frederick went to Monona in Clayton.Co.IA, and got a job milking cows for
a Mr. Olmstead. Four men milked over 100 cows by hand and barely finished when
they started at the beginning again. Frederick had every other Sunday off and
that was when he 'courted' Maude. She was the youngest of 12 surviving children
and her parents were older when she was born. Her folks were 'well-to-do'. They
had the first lawn mower and the first croquet-set in the area. When she and
Frederick were married, her parents built them a house in Monona next to the EUB
Church and gave them a Jersey cow, plus various household items. Maude had her
own horse and buggy. She had served a two year apprenticeship as a seamstress in
Monona, after she finished the 8th grade. Frederick had the equivalent of four
years schooling and that consisted of a few weeks in each of the four years. He
started painting and hanging wallpaper, which he did all of his life. He worked
some years in Dubuque, painting and decorating the inside of train coaches. He
also played the flute and was a member of the town band for many years. Maude
gave violin and piano lessons. She also had a large loom and wove 'rag' rugs.
They ran a popcorn stand in Monona. They also built five houses in Monona, three
of where are stall standing (1980's). After the death of Maude, Frederick went
to Wisconsin to live with his daughter Mary. Frederick's hip just honeycombed
and broke. Betty Joanne was unable to care for him and put him in a home at
Fairchild.WI. Mary was then able to visit with him. She died soon after that
time and within 3m, Frederick had died. This was in 1963.

Notes for ELIZABETH MUTCHLER:
Regarding homesteading in Oklahoma from a 1982 Letter of Mary Alsa nee Synder
Coy, second wife of Lewis Fletcher Siglin (son of Henry Wm):
All lands were taken from the Indians as they were forcibly removed to
reservations or to military jails and their lands thrown open to settlement for
the whites. Indian reservation were on the poorest land around. The Red Moon
Reservation for the Cheyenne-Arapaho tribes was at Hammon.OK, 20mi S of
Elk.City.OK It was a poor and ill administered reservation. My family, the
Snyders, lived 5m N of Elk City on the road to Hammon. The early tribe would all
load up and come to Elk City. Old emaciated men in long braids and old women who
were as emaciated, all the younger men and women, all the kids, all the horses
and dogs. The entire tribe were in one or two rickety covered wagons. They all
passed out doorstep. Once they turned into our place and an old man came to the
door. My father, grandfather and two brothers were in town working...just my
mother, four younger sisters and me wee there alone....scared to death. The
Indians just wanted to water their poor old horses at the water tank. Mama, of
course, gave her permission. They were so pitiful, beaten down, poor and half
starved. They always encamped on a flat block of land north of the Elk City
laundry and stayed awhile, dancing at the county fairs, etc.
After the Land Rush of 1899, there were lands in western OK which were not
taken. In 1900, the government opened western OK as 'Oklahoma Territory.'
Eastern OK was known as 'Indian Territory.' One had to apply to a district
officer for 160a of land, promising to live on it and work it for 3 yrs they
were given a temporary deed. After 3yrs, a homesteader could report to the
district officer and apply for a permanent deed. Henry Wm Siglin did jus that,
with his permanent deed being signed by Teddy Roosevelt. The father often left
the wife and children on the farm while he came to town to find work. Henry Wm
Siglin's farm was 7mi W of Elk City in a very dry, sandy location. None of
Henry's kin thought it would ever amount to much. When Henry had difficulty
making a go of it, he came back to Elk City to live the remainder of his life.
Henry's farm was in the middle of one of the early, richest oil/gas producing
areas that went into production after he sold the land.

Notes for OPAL VIOLA SIGLIN:
Living in
Oklahoma, by Opal Siglin West in 1982, g/dau of
Jacob Benjamin Siglin (son Jesse Siglin and Catherine Learn): Grandpa Jacob
Siglin and his son Jesse (my dad), who was about 18 at the time (abt 1901),
homesteaded in OK. They came with Uncle Henry (William) Siglin. Lew, Giles and
Dad were great buddies. Lew and Giles were Henry's sons. Dad and Mother (Ethel
Heaton) were married and continued living with Grandpa Jacob in a stone house.
After the birth of my sister Clara in 1905, my parents Jessed & Ethel moved to
their own homestead. Indians lived near Grandpa Jacob's place as an Indian woman
brought a baby blanket for Clara. Dad's (Jesse) homestead was at Doxy and they
lived in a two room house. Clarence (b/d 1906) and I (b 1907) were born there.
Dad raised cotton, kaffir corn (variety of sorghum grown in dry regions for
grain & fodder, where normal corn production will not work) and broom corn (also
a from of sorghum that will grow in dry areas but with no food value other than
fodder and broom straw). We had a big garden. Uncle Henry's wife, Dell (Weaks),
was a mid-wife and was with Mother when the babies were born. Dad did not stay
on the homestead, but moved to a farm near Elk City where Edith was born in
1910. Clara started to school, but refused to go, so mother sent me along, even
though I was four years old. Mother one time let me help pick some cotton to
fill a rag doll which se was making for me. When it was finished Clara was
jealous and threw the doll in the 'slop bucket.' The house near Elk City was a
big one and had a dugout (storm cellar). The dugout had a shelf all around where
Mother kept her canned food. There was also a table and chairs down there. We
went there when a high winds or a cyclone came. One time Mother opened the
gates and let the stock out and then took Clara and me to the dugout. Dad was in
Elk City for something with the team and wagon. He got home ahead of the
cyclone, drove the team and wagon in, let them go and came to the dugout. When
it was over, we went to the house and the door had blood open and rain had
gotten
in. We later went in to Elk City which was pretty well blown to pieces. Mother
got some pieces of stained glass window from the church. She always kept them in
her trunk. Uncle Henry and Aunt Dell lived on a farm next to the folks. They had
a big pink house. Aunt Dell diet their...the first dead person I had ever seen.
Since there were no funeral homes, they were laid out at home on a bed. Dad
used to go hunting and got sage hens, prairie chickens and quail. Oklahoma did
not register births until it became a state in 1910, therefore I had a terrible
time getting a birth certificate. Aunt Stella (Weaks), mothers sister and a
family Bible finally did the trick and I got a delayed certificate. Dad left
Oklahoma before we did. Aunt Stella came to help us pack and fix things for the
sale. Mother was pregnant with Myrtle. After the sale, we stayed awhile with
Aunt Stella and then went to Grandma Heaton (Mother's people) in Osgood, (Sullivan.Co)
Missouri. Dad eventually sent for us and we went to Grandpa Jacob Siglin's in
Cedar Falls, Iowa. Grandpa Jacob and Uncle John Siglin and Aunt Pet (Leah Sturch)
had gone back to Iowa (about 1910) when my folks moved near Elk City. Grandma
Heaton packed us a lunch in a shoe box to have to eat on the train. Our clothes
and what few things we had were packed in two big barrels...no fancy luggage.
We got to Cedar Falls in Feb of 1913 and Myrtle was born in March 1913. We all
lived with Grandpa Jacob and Cora.
Back in Iowa, by Opal Siglin West in 1982, g/dau of Jacob Benjamin Siglin (son
Jesse Siglin and Catherine Learn): Cora and Grandpa Jacob moved later on, but we
lived in Cedar Falls for five years. Dad worked at Iowa State Teachers' College
(now UNI), but he was not satisfied. Harold (b.1915) and Orley (b. 1917) were
born in Cedar Falls. Grandpa Jacob moved to Waterloo and so did we. Dad went to
work at Headford Foundry. Thelma was born in Waterloo (b.1919). When they had a
big strike at the foundry, we moved to a farm between Rowley and Brandon,
Iowa, (abt 10m S of Independence in Buchanan.Co.IA). DeLoris (b.1922) was born
there. Aunt Pet (Leah Sturch) and a farm lady were with mother. Clara, Edith and
I went to a country school with a man teacher. I was in 8th grade and had to
take county exams to go to high school. Clara and I drove a horse and buggy to
high school, leaving it at the livery stable until it was time to go home. We
were not supposed to race the horse with the other kids, but its safe to say now
that we did it many times. I dated a fellow who had a sleigh to use in the
winter...fur lap robe too. Soon Dad decided he did not want to farm anymore, so
we moved to an acreage in Rowley were we lived for quite some time. Dad was the
janitor for the Rowley school. Dad did have a cow and Mother some chickens. When
we were still on the farm, Mother and one of us girls, (Clara, Edith or me)
would drive a wagon and team to Brandon (6mi SE) to get groceries and always a
sack of candy. Mother would divide the amount of pieces equally with the left
over ones belonging to her. I helped Dad outside and sowed oats from the endgate
seeder. Dad and I each drove a team to Jesup for seed oats...we left at
daybreak and got home at dark. It was the first time I had ever eaten in a
restaurant. I could hitch up a team, but I could never milk a cow...I tried.
Uncle John Siglin and Aunt Pet (Leah Sturch) had a surrey with two seats and
fringe around it and needed two horses. Many Sundays, he came and got us and
brought us back home in the surrey. After I graduated from high school, I came
to Waterloo and worked at the canning factory for a time before going to Rath
Packing Co. I met Paul at a dance. Paul and I were married in Rowley on the
acreage by kerosene lamp with the Rev Dice from the Presbyterian Church
performing the ceremony. I had a bouquet of American Beauty Roses and a rose
colored dress of satin. The folks moved back to Cedar Falls after that in 1928.
We lived on Mulberry St with Ruth was born in May of 1927. In July, Paul left
Rath's and we moved to Madison, Wisc...more money to be make. We only stayed
there three months and then moved back to Waterloo and Paul went back to work
for the Rath Packing Co.
Depression, by Opal Siglin West in 1982, g/dau of Jacob Benjamin Siglin (son
Jesse Siglin and Catherine Learn): We lived with Paul's parents, his brother
Lester and his wife, his brother David, and his Grandpa and Grandma Briggs. Paul
and I finally went to Elk Run near Evansdale, just to the SE of Waterloo, where
we lived in a tar-paper, 2 room house. We had a bed and dresser, two rocking
chairs, a baby bed, and a covered box, like a chest, for sheets and
linens...what few I had. We had a linoleum rug for out kitchen/dining room and
just a throw rug in the bedroom/living room. We used a kerosene stove to cook
with. Our cupboard was orange crates with flowered curtains for doors. The
refrigerator was a bucket with a cover which we put down in the well. It had a
rope for lowering and raising. We kept milk and butter in it...I even made
Jell-O!
I used a brush to scrub Paul's overalls and used a washboard. We even had a
little garden in the sand. Out Ford Touring car had Paul's door tied shut and I
climbed over my door to get in. We then bought a three room house. We paid $50
down, but only had $25, so we paid an extra $5 a month until we made up the
other $25. Out heat came from a Round Oak heating stove we had gotten from Dad
for $5. Another $5 bought us a used wool rug. I had an oven that you put on top
of the kerosene stove for baking. First time we ever had electricity too!
Paul's father was laid off at the canning factory when the season was over. He,
Paul's Mother, and his brother David moved in with us in our three room house.
Paul's sister was teaching in Dunkerton.IA and when school out, she moved in,
too. We sold the little three room house for a down payment on the house we now
live in. All of us moved here. When the canning factory started production
again, they moved out. In 1932, my sister, Edith, and her husband came to live
with us. he was out of work and while they were here, they became parents of
twins. Only one survived...very small. He slept in Ruth's doll bed and used
Paul's handkerchiefs for diapers. That was the time Grandpa Jacob told us he had
been a triplet. We had electricity, a furnace, an outside pump and an out-house.
We traded in the hand powered washer for an electric one. I preserved everything
I could lay my hands on...we had a garden. Edith's husband cut wood and we heated
with that until it got very cold. Many times Paul would take two gunny sacks and
get that much coal. We could not afford a whole ton until pay day. Edith and
family had moved out by the time Pat was born in 1934. Paul's father had died in
1932 and in 1936 his Mother and David again moved in with us. They stayed five
years. In 1937, I returned to work at Rath Packing Co and stayed until I
retired. Paul's salary during the depression was 50c/hr. He worked 30-40hrs per
week. Paul bought Prince Albert tobacco and rolled his own cigarettes. We
budgeted very carefully, went without a lot of things, but were better off than
a lot of people...we had food, a rood over out head, and each other. Depression
was a rough time and it certainly brought families closer together. It also
taught us that no matter how rough things get, there is always a way to come
through it.
